Through the 1980s and 1990s, violent anti-Castro groups based in Florida carried out hundreds of military attacks on Cuba, bombing hotels and shooting up Cuban beaches with machine guns. The Cuban government struck back with the Wasp Network--a dozen men and two women--sent to infiltrate those organizations. The Last Soldiers of the Cold War tells the story of those unlikely Cuban spies and their eventual unmasking and prosecution by US authorities. Five of the Cubans received long or life prison terms on charges of espionage and murder. Global best-selling Brazilian author Fernando Morais narrates the riveting tale of the Cuban Five in vivid, page-turning detail, delving into the decades-long conflict between Cuba and the US, the growth of the powerful Cuban exile community in Florida, and a trial that eight Nobel Prize winners condemned as a travesty of justice. The Last Soldiers of the Cold War is both a real- life spy thriller and a searching examination of the Cold War's legacy"--|cProvided by publisher. 538 Requires Boundless App. 610 20 Red Avispa (Spy network)|xHistory. 610 27 Red Avispa (Spy network)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01928480 611 27 Cold War (1945-1989)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01754978 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Espionage, Cuban|zFlorida|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Spies|zCuba|vBiography. 650 0 Political prisoners|zUnited States|vBiography. 650 0 Cold War. 650 0 Cubans|zFlorida|xPolitics and government|y20th century. 650 0 Right-wing extremists|zFlorida|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Terrorism|zCuba|xHistory|y20th century. 650 7 Cubans|xPolitics and government.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00884845 650 7 Diplomatic relations.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01907412 650 7 Espionage, Cuban.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00915398 650 7 Political prisoners.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01069636 650 7 Right-wing extremists.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01097938 650 7 Spies.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01129772 650 7 Terrorism.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01148101 651 0 Cuba|xForeign relations|zUnited States. 651 0 United States|xForeign relations|zCuba. 651 7 Cuba.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01205805 651 7 Florida.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01205150 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 4 Electronic books. 655 7 Biography.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01423686 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 710 2 Boundless (Digital media service) |0_aBoundless_(Digital_media_service) 856 40 |uhttps://naper.boundless.baker-taylor.com/ng/view/library /title/0015699916|zFound on Boundless
