Zitat Book shows Cuba's formative role in the life of Churchill
Winston Churchill's 1895 journey to Cuba was far more formative than has been previously understood, a new book purports, saying Cuba is where the 20-year-old junior officer discovered he had courage under fire and confirmed his own sense of greatness.
In "Churchill Comes of Age: Cuba 1895," author Hal Klepak traces characteristics that made Churchill famous to his 18 days in Cuba, where he was on loan from the British army to observe colonial Spain's defense against independence fighters.
