This July 26, National Rebellion Day, we recommend an approach to history through literature. The book ''Moncada: Biografía de un Cuartel'' (Moncada: Biography of a Garrison) could be one of the bibliographic texts that help you further understand the meaning of time.
Especially, it brings you closer to that famous fortress, in which the particular elements of its evolution are combined with its historical significance.
After entering its pages I could answer questions such as: “When was this fortress built? Under what circumstances? How old is it? When was it called Moncada? Why? What relations did the fortress have with the anti-imperialist struggles in the pseudo-republic?
”Behind each question is the successful investigation of its author Nydia Sarabia, who prefers to clarify any doubt about this garrison, defined by the people as the starting point of the current Cuban revolutionary process.
The author structures the narration of events and moments that mark not only the history of this building in its constructive personality, but also its value, as a place where glorious heroic pages were written. Having this book captivates and provokes the soul. It generates concerns ready to reveal how much curiosity there is.
In its pages the "before" is represented and in a special way there is also a "present" from which Cubans will never separate, because there is the meaning of the Revolution ... the only way to understand each other.
