Summary
"On Becoming Cuban is a sweeping cultural history of the sustained encounter between the peoples of Cuba and the United States and of the ways that this encounter helped shape Cubans' identity, nationality, and sense of modernity from the early 1850s, when Cuba was still a Spanish colony, until the revolution of 1959."--BOOK JACKET.
