The award-winning foreign correspondent Peter Millar journeys through Cuba aboard a decaying railway system that was once the pride of Latin America. From the capital Havana, he travels with ordinary Cubans to the US naval base and detention camp at Guantanamo, sharing anecdotes, life stories and political opinions. Slightly off-mint and felt-tip mark on lower trimmed edge.

This wry account of a rail tour of the USA ranges from New York to LA, from Niagara Falls to New Orleans. The author meets card-playing Amish, traces his Irish roots with the Mormons, and visits a number of microbreweries along the way.
