Description

Explore a detailed historical account of the Cuban presence in Angola through this Routledge publication. This book examines the motivations behind why Cuba sent half a million citizens to fight in Africa and how a short-term mission grew into a long-term war of intervention. The text tracks the evolution of the Cuban alliance with the Angolan MPLA, starting from January 1965. It follows the trajectory of Cuba's internationalist mission, leading to the military intervention in November 1975 and the eventual occupation of Angola that lasted fifteen years. The narrative covers significant historical milestones, including the events at Cuito Cuanavale. Readers gain access to a deep study built on interviews with leading protagonists and first-hand accounts. This work provides a comprehensive look at the military and political dynamics that shaped this period of African and Caribbean history. It is an essential resource for those studying military history, international relations, and the complexities of 20th-century global conflicts.
