Tracing the long love affair between Cubans and the U.S. automobile, Baker's dynamic photojournalistic essay offers a paean to the extraordinary people who keep their weary cacharros
running with resourcefulness, ingenuity, and indefatigable good humor. Cuba Classics
is the result of more than twenty visits to Cuba. With each visit, Cuba's unique collection of classic American autos - whether shining examples or sorry-heaps of metal -
impressed Baker more and more as being as quintessential a defining element of contemporary Cuba as are the cables cars to San Francisco, the gondolas for Venice, and the black taxi cabs
and red double-decker buses of London. While he had not initially envisioned producing an illustrative book on Cuban cars, soon it dawned on him that the subject matter cried out for an
exciting archival treatment. The result is this exquisite, one-of-a-kind coffee-table book. Written in the lively, engaging style that has won the author numerous liteary awards, Whether you're a classic car connoisseur, an armchair traveler, or simply a lover of fine-art impressions,
