review 1: Riciclando, suo malgrado, l'ultra-britannico motto: giusto o sbagliato, è il mio Paese, la famiglia Bacardi fu così connessa alla storia e allo spirito cubano che vien voglia di aprirne subito una bottiglia. Le generazioni si susseguivano, gli oppressori anche: dalla Spagna agli USA, da Batista a Fidel. Ma, anche dall'esilio in Florida, l'amore per la madrepatria non smise mai di essere distillato.
review 2: Now, this was a well researched work. I was totally fascinated by the level of scholarship that went into this book. He paints quite the chronological picture of the history of the Company, the family members and the Cuban society. I really enjoyed how all the elements were tied together and explored from the varying perspectives of the main characters... more developed in the telling. I highly recommend this book for any aficionado of history and rum!!! less
