Rebel lands of Cuba : the campesino struggles of Oriente and Escambray 1934 1974 This comparative history of Cuban campesinos from 1934 to 1974 covers two regions marked by extreme differences in race gender and land tenure: Oriente and Escambray. The author examines the largely suppressed history of a region whose name has been expunged from the historical record to explore the question of why campesinos participated in both revolution and the counterrevolution Provided by publisher
