Customer comments on this selection.
 Great travel book
I happen to love great travel books and this was fantastic. It has been few years since I read this book but it was a fast and fun read. You get a real sense of the culture and the country. The book was always moving and that is what i like about travel books.
A Great Ride!
Mr. Baker's book is riveting, entertaining, and educational. I am Cuban born and had visited Cuba prior to the "special period". Mr. Baker's account is fair and balanced and highlights the Castro regime's failures and accomplishments. For anyone wishing to find out what it is like in Cuba - look no further! It is a fabulous read.
 Good book
Although Baker is an unapologetic womanizer and takes avantage of many women who obviously want him so as to escape Cuba, the book is interesting in that it highlights many of the failures of the cuban revolution; the prostitution, bad food. Meanwhile, he catches the friendliness of the people.
 Mid Life Crisis
Some men buy a red convertible. Some take a mistress. This is not news, nor newsworthy. Another title of this book could be, "A Boy, A Bike and A Penis". White male heterosexuality at it's banal worst. But then again, no one forced me to read it! If you want to know about the conditions in Cuba, this is NOT the book to read. If you want to live vicariously, it's all yours!
 the other million little lies
a drunk finnish skipper gives him ze helm of his boat in 15 foot seas, then goes below for a nap. this after showing him how to read the instrument panel and telling him his compas has just been installed and is 10 degrees off. uh huh. then the panel goes dark, who knows why; maybe the 15 foot seas? should he wake the captain, nah, why do that when he can steer by the compass?
this is just the beginning of the book. this guy is so self absorbed that he writes his own review filled with what? more reviews! skip this work of fiction.
