SUMMARY
"Mr. Michener gives his sympathetic impressions of the people and especially of the well-fed and educated children. He visited many public and private places, soaking up the atmosphere that he needed for 'Caribbean,' and was treated cordially by those he met and interviewed.... Mr. Michener and Mr. Kings did not get to see Fidel Castro during their brief, nonpolitical stay, and they do not presume to pass instant judgment on the effects of the revolution.Michener, James A. is the author of 'Six Days in Havana', published 1989 under ISBN 9780292776296 and ISBN 0292776292.
