We tend to remember the Revolution as a struggle between American patriots and the British crown, with France lending a hand. But the full picture is richer—and one of its most decisive players has been overlooked for centuries: Spain, and especially its prized Caribbean colony, Cuba.

This book is an easy-to-read historical account of Spain and Cuba’s contribution to the independence of the United States of America that changed the course of History. The book received the prestigious Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) Award from the España Chapter in 2023.
