resource.description

Award-winning journalist Peter Millar jumps aboard a railway system that was once the pride of Latin America – and now a crippled casualty case – to undertake a railway odyssey the length of Cuba in the dying days of the Castro regime. Starting in the ramshackle but romantic capital of Havana, once dominated by the US mafia, he travels with ordinary Cubans, sharing anecdotes, life stories and political opinions, to the far end of the island, where it meets a more modern blot of American history, the Guantánamo naval base and detention camp. Millar may not have all the answers but he asks the right questions on an anarchic, entertaining and often comic adventure. This is a journey about which everyone will want to read – but no one in their right mind would want to follow!
