The last flight from Havana, Cuba is a wonderfully written book about the experiences of a young lady, her younger brother, and mother leaving Cuba in 1959 during the final days before the Communist take over by Fidel Castro. The author was a young girl at the time and she walks you through the heart break of leaving, family, friends, and a way of life seriously different from the flight’s destination in the United States. She faced the challenges of learning a new language, making new friends, adopting new customs, and recognizing with hope in her heart that opportunities did exist for her in this new world, A must read for anyone who appreciates The United States and what this country has meant to so many people over the years!
