About

This is a compelling behind-the-scenes account of the extraordinary Castro brothers and the dynastic succession of Fidel's younger brother Raul. Brian Latell, the CIA analyst who has followed Castro since the sixties, gives an unprecedented view into Fidel and Raul's remarkable relationship, revealing how they have collaborated in policymaking, divided responsibilities, and resolved disagreements for more than forty years-a challenge to the notion that Fidel always acts alone. Latell has had more access to the brothers than anyone else in this country, and his briefs to the CIA informed much of U.S. policy. Based on his knowledge of Raul Castro, Latell makes projections on what kind of leader Raul will be and how the shift in power might influence U.S.-Cuban relations.

Reviews

"In After Fidel, Brian Lattel combines more than thirty years of CIA expertise with academic rigor and lively prose. The combination is particularly suited for analyzing the CIA's nemesis for now nearly half a century and for making sense of what the future will bring to Cuba: a country whose importance to the United States and Latin America one should never underestimate."
Jorge Castaneda, Former Foreign Secretary, Mexico
"Brian Latell is one of America's foremost Cuba analysts. He has produced a fascinating psychological profile of Fidel Castro and the man who, after forty-plus years in the shadows, may soon succeed him--his brother Raul."
George J. Tenet, Former Director, Central Intelligence Agency
"Few Americans understand Cuba--past, present, and future--better than Brian Latell. He has combined an old CIA hand's knowledge and insights with a clear, readable writer's touch to bring both Castros--Fidel and his enigmatic brother Raul--to life."
Evan Thomas, Newsweek Magazine, New York Times bestselling author of Robert Kennedy: His L
