WHILE THE U.S. BATTLES TERRORIST REGIMES ACROSS THE OCEAN, OUR BIGGEST THREAT MAY BE RIGHT NEXT DOOR...

Yet Hollywood, Academia, Media and the Liberal Elites Continue to Swoon over Cuba and Its Tyrannical Leader

"[Castro is] a humanist, a man of many ideals, including those of liberty, democracy, and social justice." —The New York Times

Washington, DC—Fidel Castro is the "charming and idealist" dictator loved by Hollywood, academia, and the liberal media. However, what The New York Times doesn't tell you is that behind his charisma lies a merciless dictator and mass murderer who outnumbered the Nazi prewar incarceration and murder rate during his first three months in power. In Fidel: Hollywood's Favorite Tyrant, journalist, acclaimed author, and Cuban émigré Humberto Fontova shatters the myths and exposes the truth about the liberal elites' love affair with Castro—revealing the propaganda of media inaccuracies of the past forty-three years.

Fidel is a shocking confirmation of how one dictator has murdered, impoverished, and tyrannized a country that once had the eleventh highest living standard in the world—yet remains American liberals' favorite dictator. In hundreds of interviews with former Castro regime officials, anti-Castro freedom fighters, and Castro's political prisoners, Fontova reveals the truth about "Cuba's President." Fidel discloses horrific tales of the Castro regime, including his failed terrorist plot on New York City, atrocious human rights record, and blood-drenched Cuban Revolution.

Fidel reveals secrets the liberal Fidel Castro fan club would rather you didn't know, including how:

• Gregory Craig, Bill Clinton's former lawyer, stage-managed Dan Rather's 60 Minutes interview with Elian Gonzalez's father, feeding the questions to him
• Castro has imprisoned a higher percentage of his population than did Hitler or Stalin
• Castro committed the biggest heist in U.S. history and confiscated more than $1.8 billion worth of stolen American property

Fidel: Hollywood's Favorite Tyrant is a stunning exposé of the truth about Castro and of the hypocrisy, ignorance, and inexcusable appeasement that makes his liberal admirers notorious.
