Guantnamo has become a symbol of what has gone wrong in the War on Terror. Yet Guantnamo is more than a U.S. naval base and prison in Cuba, it is a town, and our military occupation there has required more than soldiers and sailorsit has required workers. This revealing history of the women and men who worked on the U.S. naval base in Guantnamo Bay tells the story of U.S.Cuban relations from a new perspective, and at the same time, shows how neocolonialism, empire, and revolution transformed the lives of everyday people. Drawing from rich oral histories and littleexplored Cuban archives, Jana K. Lipman analyzes how the Cold War and the Cuban revolution made the naval base a place devoid of law and accountability. The result is a narrative filled with danger, intrigue, and exploitation throughout the twentieth century. Opening a new window onto the history of U.S. imperialism in the Caribbean and labor history in the region, her book tells how events in Guantnamo and the base created an ominous precedent likely to inform the functioning of U.S. military bases around the world.
