Abstract
As an introduction to early national Cuban history, The Mythof José Martí is a valuable and accessibly written account that offers new insight into the variety of Cuban nationalisms at the beginning of the twentieth-century. Guerra’s commitment to continuously and consistently exploring the “view from below” makes her book particularly rewarding.
