Told for the first time, this is the story (along with first person testimonies) of those who suffered displacement in and around the Escambray area in Cuba in 1971. This was an inhumane operation ordered by the Castro brothers very similar to the one undertaken by the Spanish colonial regime during the 1895 War of Independence. The book is a telling account of the struggle for freedom by Cubans who suffered displacements in their own country.--publisher
