| 250614 | 2004-07-08 04:07:00 | www.cia.gov travel.state.gov www.historyofcuba.com [/b] The above contain almost everything you could need, or link to other sites that contain it. But as you have already exhausted Google, I really don't know what you are looking for. These sites are the first few hits on Google, using Cuba as the search word. |

| 250616 | 2004-07-08 05:11:00 | Here is another link: www.fact-index.com with lots of sub-links. You could also read Grahame Greens novel "Our Man in Havana" set in Cuba during the Batista regime, it wont tell you much about Cuba but it is a good read. There was a film made in 1959. Batista lead an incredibly corrupt regime supported and propped up of course by the US, as they are wont to do. Parallels can be drawn between the US supporting Batista, and the US supporting Sadam Hussein in the war against Iran, and other right-wing corrupt dictators, but we are getting political again :) |

| 250618 | 2004-07-08 13:08:00 | Perhaps some useful recent information... Cuba, particularly Havana, is still (as of early March 2004) well endowed with Ernest Hemingway lookalikes, old American cars, and people who think tourists have full wallets that need some assistance to empty. If you want a good collection of very recent photos of Cuba (about March 4-12 this year) have a look at This Site. (www.chriscourt.net) And if you are interested in chess, as all good intellectual contributors to Press F1 no doubt should be, you might also appreciate this particular one (www.chriscourt.net), which is the tomb of Jose Raul Capablanca y Graupera, ("As one by one I mowed them down, my superiority soon became apparent.")
