Incluye también la transcripción de 48 páginas del testimonio dado por José Ramón Fernández Álvarez en 1999 sobre el papel que desempeñó a la cabeza de las tropas cubanas que combatieron contra los invasores en Playa Girón. Fotografías, mapas y diagramas ofrecen un complemento útil al texto."-Hispanic American Historical Review "Presenta una colección diversa de discursos, comunicados y testimonios de ese periodo, de personas como Fidel Castro y Che Guevara.
