Marianas in Combat Teté Puebla and the Mariana Grajales Women's Platoon in Cuba's Revolutionary War 1956-58 English and Spanish available By Puebla, Teté

Brigadier General Teté Puebla, the highest-ranking woman in Cuba's Revolutionary Armed Forces, joined the struggle to overthrow the U.S.-backed dictatorship of Fulgencio Batista in 1956, when she was fifteen years old. This is her story--from clandestine action in the cities, to serving as an officer in the victorious Rebel Army's first all-women's unit--the Mariana Grajales Women's Platoon. For nearly fifty years, the fight to transform the social and economic status of women in Cuba has been inseparable from Cuba's socialist revolution.
