Summary:

"During the violent years of war marking Cuba's final push for independence from Spain, over 3,000 Cuban emigres, men and women, rich and poor, fled to Mexico.... Mexico was a key site ... from which the expatriates helped launch a mobile and politically active Cuban diaspora around the Gulf of Mexico"-- Provided by publisher.
