Cuba's participation in South, Central America

[Karl Marx's Camel]

Are there any good articles/books on Cuba's participation in South, Central America and Africa? Has Cuba ever been involved in Asia (Vietnam, for instance)?

Scroll down to where it says Cuba, it's all in alphabetical order so you should be alright. It might help with what you are looking for.

Conflicting Missions by Piero Gliejeses is the best book on Cuba's involvement in Africa. Accounts by participants include Che's Congo diary, published under the title Che's African Dream in English, and From the Escambray to the Congo by Victor Dreke.

Since this is the resources forum, Here's a webpage about the book with links to several declassified documents about Cuba's role in Africa (http://www.gwu.edu/~nsarchiv/NSAEBB/NSAEBB67/) They're PDF's of photocopies and can be hard to read, but the English translations of some of them are in text format.

Cuba offered to send troops to Vietnam, and did send bulldozer operators to work on the Ho Chi Minh Trail. An article about this. (http://www.themilitant.com/2005/6920/692051.html)
