The most comprehensive, complete, and up-to-date travel guide to the "Pearl of the Caribbean" on the German-speaking market is an indispensable guide through a country where street signs are rather rare, yet it has become one of the most sought-after long-distance travel destinations. Wolfgang Ziegler, for whom Cuba has become a second home, takes readers on a journey through every remote corner in his 800-page standard work, sharing much about the land and its people, along with many anecdotes. Did you know that Ernest Hemingway's yacht "Pilar," with which the Nobel Prize-winning author hunted German submarines during World War II, is displayed at the Finca "La Vigía"? Or that Fidel Castro's first father-in-law had to be locked in the sacristy of the church in Banes during the wedding ceremony?.
