Guillermo Vicente Vidal's memoir chronicles his journey from Castro's Cuba to the United States - a tapestry of his coming of age, a broken family, and disorientation of political unrest. Vidal was barely 10 years old when he proudly shook the hand of Fidel Castro. Although Vidal's parents were once staunch supporters of La Revolucion, they soon found they could no longer keep their sons safe in the new face of Castro's reign, making the difficult decision to send Vidal and his brothers to the US via Operation Peter Pan in 1961.

Great insight to history
Revisado: 06-01-21
This was a well written story. I love the personal story, it made history come to life. The author did a great job telling his and his families story that helped me to see and feel what he went through and others like him. I had no idea what the people of Cuba had to endure. This was a fa ou loud read I would recommend this book to anyone.
