Hey everyone,

I've been in search of a good Fidel biography. I've heard Tad Zsulc's probably the most 'critical', but alotta ppl have said that he focuses on the negatives instead of a balanced view.

Any recommendations?

Fidel Castro: A Biography
by
Volker Skierka

this book provides a balanced view on most of the topics.

Tad Szulcs book is shit for the most part; though like anything of the sort you can filter out the truth if you try (and have somethings to source against).

Two that I would recomend (though not complete biographies) are Fidel Castro "My Early Years" & "Fidel And Religion"

There are some ok documentaries as well... try here (http://www.mpi-web.net/rwm/dvds.html).
