The story of William Morgan, the “American comandante” who fought with Fidel Castro
This morning, I heard the news of the death of Fidel Castro and the American friends with whom I am staying outside Washington DC told me about a feature of the Cuban war of independence and its aftermath that was totally new to me. I learned that there was an “American comandante” called William Morgan who fought for the revolution but ultimately died when the revolution was betrayed and he was executed.
I was shown a television programme about Morgan which is really interesting and well done. It is 54 minutes but well worth watching here.
