Summary:
"Whether he'
s
hustling his way into Mike Tyson's mansion for an interview, betting his life savings on a
boxing
match, becoming romantically entangled with one of Fidel
Castro
's granddaughters, or simply manufacturing press credentials to go where he wants, Brin-Jonathan Butler has always been the 'act first, ask permission later' kind of journalist. This book is the culmination of Butler'
s
decade
spent in the trenches of Havana, trying to understand a culture perplexing to Westerners: one whose elite athletes regularly forgo multimillion-dollar opportunities to stay in
Cuba
and box for their country, while living in penury"--From publisher.
