Amazon.com also indicates that Leogrande received his Ph.D.
in Political Science from the Maxwell School at Syracuse University. https://www.amazon.com/Back-Channel-Cuba-Negotiations-Washington/dp/1469617633
Peter Kornbluh, the co-author of Back channel to Cuba, directs the Cuba Documentation Project and
the Chile Documentation Project at the National Security Archive in Washington,
DC, and is also the author of The Pinochet File: A Declassified Dossier on
Atrocity and Accountability. https://www.thenation.com/authors/peter-kornbluh/
Based on these credentials, both LeoGrande and Kornbluh seem
well qualified to provide information on political relations between Cuba and
the United States.
This book was published in 2014, and relations between Cuba
and the United States have changed significantly since then as a result of
President Barack Obama’s new policies.
Any discussion of Cuba/U.S. relations could use this book as a good
background source, but it would have to be supplemented by 2015 and 2016
publications that take into account President Obama’s new policies toward Cuba.
