The Epic of Cuba Libre
Éric Morales-Franceschini describes his own text as a “peculiar book” (p. 59). Indeed, it reads as if written by someone earnestly ambivalent about its subject matter. The Epic of Cuba Libre is about an idea born during Cuba's long independence struggle with Spain (1868–98): the idea of a free Cuba. But Morales-Franceschini does not only analyze the immediate postindependence period. Rather, he examines how this idea becomes mythologized, appropr…

The Boundaries and the Bonds of Citizenship
This article explores the challenges that Cubans exiled abroad and internally exiled Africans in Cuba posed to the entwined processes of US empire- and Cuban nation-state formation at the turn of the twentieth century. While exiled Cubans made demands on state and empire concerning their rights of citizenship and inclusion, internally exiled Africans made demands on state and imperial officials concerning their rights to self-determination and no…
Lisandro Pérez. Sugar, Cigars, and Revolution
Sugar, Cigars, and Revolution: The Making of Cuban New York, by Lisandro Pérez, is a beautifully written and engaging book. Deeply personal and rigorously researched, this work presents us with a fresh perspective on a city we thought we knew. This is New York City otherwise. A veritable page turner, Sugar, Cigars, and Revolution will appeal to academic and nonspecialist audiences interested in the history of New York City, Latin America, and the…
The Ignored Contender
The Ignored Contender: A Select Annotated Bibliography of the Cuban Autonomist Party (1878–1898) by Rafael Tarragó is a rare gem. Good old-fashioned annotated bibliographies are increasingly hard to find and yet remain among the most useful entry points into scholarly topics available today. Tarragó's guide to the history of the Cuban Autonomist Party is the form at its best. Covering over 300 primary and secondary sources, it is safe to say that…
Diaspora and Trust
Cuban Émigrés and Independence in the Nineteenth-Century Gulf World
During the violent years of war marking Cuba’s final push for independence from Spain, over 3,000 Cuban émigrés, men and women, rich and poor, fled to Mexico. But more than a safe haven, Mexico was a key site from which the expatriates helped launch a mobile and politically active Cuban diaspora around the Gulf of Mexico. Offering a new transnational vantage on Cuba’s struggle for nationhood, this book traces the stories of three hundred of these…
Latin America and the Question of Cuban Independence
In a famous account of his travels, titled El destino de un continente , the Argentine writer Manuel Ugarte describes his somewhat disconcerting encounter with the Cuban ex-president Jos Miguel Gmez while traveling through Latin America during the 1920s. Ugarte, a committed advocate of panhispanismo —the idea that Spanish America was and should be unified by its shared Spanish heritage, especially in light of the threat from Anglo- Saxon culture—…
