This comprehensive biography of Eduardo Ren Chibs (19071951) traces the life and times of Cubas most popular and charismatic politician during the late 1940s and early 1950s. Chibs, whose admirers included young Fidel Castro, emphasized honesty in Cuban public life and promised to sweep away corrupt politicians during his popular Sunday broadcasts. His ties with supporters, many of whom knew him simply as Eddy, were closer and more informal than any previous Cuban politician. During his 1948 presidential campaign, Chibs often hurled himself into the arms of adoring supporters after speeches. Such gestures were met with wonder and disgust by politicians more accustomed to buying votes than winning hearts. His suicide in 1951 dashed the dreams of his followerswho hoped he would deliver an honest government that provided services for the islands poor and respected Cubas progressive 1940 constitution. His death, which was followed seven months hence by a military coup and eight years later by Castros revolution, represents one of the great what ifs of Cuban politics. This seminal work explores Chibss life in order to explain the nature of Cuban politics from the midtwentieth century to today.
