520 1 $a"In this intriguing assemblage of documents, drawn from the State Department, the Kennedy Library, private papers, and the Assassination Records Review Board, and including newly released materials, Mark White traces the attitudes and actions of the Kennedys in their fateful dealings with Castro and Cuba. In his selection and commentary, Mr. White has constructed a virtual narrative which allows the reader to see, through the documents, how the story developed. It becomes clear that the Kennedys' fervent desire was to oust Castro by any means possible short of all-out war. Yet in JFK's last days, as Mr. White reveals, the United States signaled what seemed to be a move toward rapprochement." "The Kennedys and Cuba will allow the reader to become a historian, deriving his or her own interpretation from the raw data provided by Mr. White. This is an important record of one of America's thorniest and most persistent foreign policy problems."--BOOK JACKET.
