“Craig braids the history of Cuban-American relations with quick, fluent grace.” – Nicholson Baker, author of Human Smoke
“Intrepid Bill Craig's wild journeys through Cuba tell a story no one has told before: The legacy of America's disastrous 1898 intervention. Withsolid-gold reporting and a quirky flair for drama, humor, and pathos, Craig reveals not only a hidden Cuba, but the hidden heart of America, too. The book is bound to be a classic.” – Sy Montgomery, author of The Good Good Pig and Spell of the Tiger
“For its style, humanity and vision, Yankee Come Home is beyond praise. The writing is sharper, the descriptions more evocative, than anything I have read in years.” – Jack Beatty, author of The Lost History of 1914 and Age of Betrayal
