There's no doubt Castro's reign in Cuba changed a lot of lives, including that of author Ozzie Sabina.

Cuban-born Ozzie Sabina often asks himself, "What would life have been like if Fidel Castro had opened a law practice in Cuba instead of starting a revolution?" There's no doubt Castro's reign in Cuba changed a lot of lives, including that of author Ozzie Sabina. He escaped the country with his thirteen-year-old brother, William, in 1962 with the help of the United States and Operation Pedro Pan-a concerted effort that relocated more than 14,000 Cuban children. My Escape from Cuba is Sabina's story of growing up in Cuba and his subsequent move to the United States when he was only sixteen years old. This memoir encompasses much of Sabina's life: from growing up in a small town in Cuba, to his school days and his love of his close-knit family, to his first airplane trip to the United States, mastering the English language, and living with a new family in St. Petersburg, Florida. A compelling story that gives firsthand insight into what life was like in Cuba in the late 1950s and early 1960s; My Escape from Cuba shows the determination and courage of a young man making the most of his new life.
