"Guantanamo: An American History" is an American history book by author Jonathan M. Hansen. It provides the first complete account of the fascinating Guantanamo Bay. Praised by literary authors as well as his colleagues at Harvard University, Jonathan "puts a small but critically important corner of the American empire under the microscope." Andrew J. Bacevich, author of "Washington Rules: American's Path to Permanent War" continues: "What he reveals may not be pretty, but it's powerfully instructive and endlessly fascinating."
About the Book
Say the word "Guantanamo" and orange jumpsuits, chain-link fences, torture, and indefinite detention come to mind. To critics the world over, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, is a striking symbol of American hypocrisy.
But the prison isn't the whole story. For more than 2 centuries, Guantanamo has been at the center of American imperial ambition, first as an object of desire, then as a convenient staging ground. Learn more about "Guantanamo: An American History.”
