This book dealt with the identity and complexities of Fidel Castro, the man and icon. I thought it did a good job at not steering you to feel a certain way about him. I found myself relating to his idealism and his early experiences in youth organizing culture. Because it was such a brief intro, I don't have many details on defining moments while he was in power, but the book inspired me to learn more about Cuban history in general and as it relates to U.S. imperialism.
