From the dust jacket: 'After the Bay Of Pigs details for the first time the efforts of the Cuban Families Committee, her Coordinator, Berta Barreto de los Heros, and famed negotiator James B. Donovan, over a 20-month period to negotiate the release of the POWs of the 1961 exiled invasion of Cuba. It chronicles the roller-coaster negotiations and the delicate political relationships prevalent in the early years of Castro's regime and towards the end of JFK's presidency. It is the story not only of the heroic effort that resulted in the dramatic release of 1,113 prisoners on Christmas Even 1962, following the first delivery of the agreed- upon $53 million in food, medicine, and surgical equipment, negotiated for their release, but also details how Donovan and Berta were able to negotiate the exit of another group of 7,677 Cuban citizens aboard the very same ships and planes chartered by the American Red Cross to deliver their cargo to Havana. Readers will understand the tense political context that met Donovan (famous for negotiating the release in the early months of 1962 of Francis Gary Powers whose U-2 spy plane was shot down by the USSR) after being recommended to the prisoner's families by then-Attorney General, Robert F. Kennedy to dive into the negotiations on behalf of the Cuban Families Committee.'. Inscribed by Author(s).
