Castro's Classmates

Desi Arnaz was a classmate of Fidel Castro’s at the Colegio de Dolores, where the Jesuit teachers told their students to “ask everybody everything every day” and recommended “a minimum of precept, a maximum of practice.” Patrick Symmes’s new book The Boys from Dolores catches up with Castro’s classmates four decades after the Revolution. Check out the reviews at The New York Times and The Washington Post and then buy the book.
