Title: Cubans in the Confederacy
Description: "The often distinguished role of Cubans in the American Civil War is seldom appreciated. This work is the first to provide a close look. Although Cubans are recorded in the rosters of both Union and Confederate forces, their ties with the Confederacy were particularly strong, partly because Cuban patriots fighting for liberation from Spain tended to identify the Southern cause with revolutionary struggle."--BOOK JACKET.
