1933 saw a major revolution in Cuba. Prompted by the cruel dictatorship of General Gerardo Machado, the economic hardships of a world depression, and the growing control of their economy by Spaniards and North Americans, a group of Cubans led by students and intellectuals sought radical reforms and a profound transformation of Cuban society. Machado was deposed, his followers and supporters had to go on exile and a new style of dealing with political issues was born in Cuba. To political corruption in government it was now added aggression and bloodshed to the electoral processes. This book looks at these events from the perspective of the United States. It is based on telegrams, Telex conversations, memoranda and inquiries, recently declassified by the American government, that took place from Washington to and from Havana, during the 1933 Revolution. These are complemented with chronological listings of events in Cuba and Washington.
