C. Wright Mills and the Cuban Revolution: An Exercise in the Art of Sociological Imagination

A. Javier Trevino

Overview

Mills documented his experiences and insights in his book, "Listen, Yankee: The Revolution in Cuba." The transcribed and translated interviews are presented with extensive annotations, offering context and explanation. Readers can observe Mills's skill as an interviewer and how he utilized the information gathered from his sources. The book also recounts the intertwined lives of C.
