Chronicles the history of Guantanamo Bay, from the Founding Fathers' desire to possess it to the controversial base it hosts today and the uber-patriotic American soldiers, civilians and their families that call the piece of land home. |
520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. |
Summary, etc. |
Say the word 'Guantanamo' and orange jumpsuits, chain-link fences, torture, and indefinite detention come to mind. To critics the world over, Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, is a striking symbol of American hypocrisy. But the prison isn't the whole story. For more than two centuries, Guantanamo has been at the center of American imperial ambition, first as an object of desire then as a convenient staging ground. In this book, the author presents the first complete account of this fascinating place. The U.S. presence at Guantanamo predates even the nation itself, as the bay figured centrally in the imperial expansion plans of colonist and British sailor Lawrence Washington, half brother of the future president George. As the young United States rose in power, Thomas Jefferson and his followers envisioned a vast 'empire of liberty, ' which hinged on U.S. control of the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea. Politically and geographically, Guantanamo Bay was the key to this strategy. So when Cubans took up arms against their Spanish rulers in 1898, America swooped in to ensure that Guantanamo would end up firmly in its control. Over the next century, the American navy turned the bay into an idyllic modern Mayberry- complete with bungalows, cul-de-sacs, and country clubs, which base residents still enjoy. In many ways, Guantanamo remains more quintessentially American than America itself: a distillation of the idealism and arrogance that has characterized U.S. national identity and foreign policy from the very beginning. Despite the Obama administration's repeated efforts to shutter the notorious prison, the naval base is in no danger of closing anytime soon. Places like Guantanamo, which fall between the clear borders of law and sovereignty, continue to serve a purpose regardless of which leaders- left, right, or center- hold the reins of power. -- Publisher description. |
