The wonders of Cuba’s landscape, its people, and their lifestyles are captured in this compelling collection of imagery. Havana’s highlights are depicted in detail along with classic cars from the golden age of American automobiles, the northern coastal city of Matanzas, and popular white sand beach resorts. Showcasing the World Heritage Sites Old Havana and Trinidad, this striking compilation also tours Guantanamo Bay and the Isla de la Juventud, home to some of Cuba’s most important agricultural farmland. From central Cuba’s charming colonial cities of Sancti Spiritus and Santa Clara to the tobacco fields and picturesque hills of the Viñales Valley, this photographic journey features commentary on the island’s history, geography, economy, and holidays in both English and Spanish. A special feature shows photographs of the Cuban band Interactivo, a collaborative group of Cuban musicians led by the pianist, singer, and composer Roberto Carcasses. An essay by poet Omar Pérez is also included.
