Review
What makes this account particularly appealing is Castro s (or Fuentes ) version of critical events and his relations with and feelings concerning historical figures. ... Of course, this isn t history, but it is enjoyable, interesting, and probably as accurate a portrait as we are likely to get. --Jay Freeman
