A thorough examination of the history of Cuba, now with a fresh update discussing the most recent developments in the country.

This historical overview connects significant events from Cuba's past with the country's current social and political changes. Author Clifford L. Staten reviews the changing landscape of Cuba and explores subjects such as its independence from Spain, the rise and fall of the sugar industry; the causes of the revolution, the successes and failures of Castro's revolution; and the importance of the US in Cuba's past and its future.

The revised edition includes additional biographies of key figures from recent history and an expanded bibliography of notable resources. Updated content features a look at Cuban politics over the last decade including the attempt by Raul Castro and Miguel Diaz-Canel to implement a socialist market model of development, the changing civil society on the island, the effects of the Covid-19 pandemic, the nationwide demonstrations of July 11, 2021, the continued dependence on imported oil, and relations with China and the Biden and Trump administrations.
