Книга: Gjelten Tom «Bacardi And The Long Fight For Cuba»
|
Серия: "-" In this widely hailed book, NPR correspondent Tom Gjelten fuses the story of the Bacardi family and their famous rum business with Cubaas tumultuous experience over the last 150 years to produce a deeply entertaining historical narrative. The company Facundo Bacardi launched in Cuba in 1862 brought worldwide fame to the island, and in the decades that followed his Bacardi descendants participated in every aspect of Cuban life. With his intimate account of their struggles and adventures across five generations, Gjelten brings to life the larger story of Cubaas fight for freedom, its tortured relationship with America, the rise of Fidel Castro, and the violent division of the Cuban nation. Издательство: "Penguin Group" (2009)
