Hidden Cuba: A Photojournalists Unauthorized Journey into Cuba to Capture Daily Life 50 Years after Castro's Revolution- By Jack Watson Last year, renowned American photographer Jack Watson travelled to Cuba on a legal humanitarian visa. He chronicled his journey with breath-taking, and often heart breaking images of the Cuban people, cites, and countryside. Watson describes his visit: "I had stepped back in time 50 years — this was my first impression of Cuba. My journey, which began in Havana, consisted of traveling by bus, pedicab, coco cab, 1957 Chevy, and foot. I was here primarily to help the Cuban people, but giving away medicine, vitamins, and money felt like using aspirin to treat the plague. I covered hundreds of miles, traveling in an oval-shaped route with stops at Cienfuegos, the Bay of Pigs, Trinidad, and Varadero Beach in the province of Matanzas — and then back to Havana. As the title of this book indicates, this is an unauthorized journal of photographs taken during my visit. While I certainly share similar and compassionate thoughts about humanitarian aid toward people in need, I felt a greater calling in compiling the images for this book. If one picture is indeed worth thousands of words, then this is an encyclopedic portrayal of the real — hidden — Cuba. This is not a travel guide; I’ll leave that for the tourism industry. It is, however, a behind-the-scenes look at the Cuba that tourist never see. I have tried to present a wide portrayal of images that will allow the viewer to see all aspects of Castro’s Cuba. You cannot look at the glitz alone and make logical conclusions about this country; while there is some beauty, there is more decay. While the country is admittedly a communist enclave, when looking at these images one has to ask if this form of government was the right choice for the Cuban people. You be the judge — the story is in your hands." #9781601385697 $39.95 2011 President's Book Awards GOLD Medal Winner (Coffee Table Book Category - Florida Publishers Association): Hidden Cuba:: A Photojournalist's Unauthorized Journey to Cuba to Capture Daily Life - 50 Years after Castro's Revolution CLICK HERE For a Video CLIP about "Hidden Cuba: A Photojournalists Unauthorized Journey into Cuba to Capture Daily Life 50 Years after Castro's Revolution" - By Jack Watson (33 MB)
