Let the Bastards Go: From Cuba to Freedom on God's Mercy

Summary: What was then is now still true.
Review: Every once in a while one of us is called to do something for others that at first only seems to be a short, personal sacrifice.

Two priests, seeing the need in the eyes of others overcame the barriers of money, boats, and party politics to travel to an island that for 20 years sat so close to freedom, yet so far away from the life they knew.

Their time in Cuba exposed them to a bureaucracy layered in both power and ineptness that they also overcame by their spiritial strengh. Upon returning their spiritial strengh was once again tested by our own goverment- a bureaucracy that in so many ways paralleled what they had left behind in Havana.

In these times of turmoil over US politics and the aging Fidel, this book will help you to understand so much from those who gave of themselves first.
