Summary: What a timely book for the Coming Cuba Travel Boom!
Comment: "Travel Tips and News Newsletter" by Jens Jurgen July/August 1999
The first edition of "Living and Investing in the New Cuba" is an interesting new book by Christopher Howard. In it the author describes Cuba's colorful history, its flora and fauna, customs, foods, health care, transportation, learning Cuban-style Spanish, Cuba's amazing people and much more. There is not too much about the many disadvantages of living under the current oppresive regime. However, many people anticipate a change soon.
The investment portion of Howard's book (published in Costa Rica) is written for a worldwide audience. Europeans as well as Canadians can already invest in Cuba (Americans can't legally as of now but there will be lots of opportunities in the future). As with lesser known travel and investment opportunities, one should do a lot of homework in advance. Don't wait until the U.S. Teasury eases or drops its regulations prohibiting Americans from trading with Cuba. This handy guide provides a two-page list of possible start-up business in Cuba to pique your imagination. BUY and READ Christopher Howard's book now to get a head start.

Summary: Give the Author a "10" for Originality
Comment: The author is definitely ahead of his time. This guide will come in handy as soon as things open up in Cuba. It will give anyone interested in living or investing there a head start. It's only a question of time before the embargo ends and the moment comes for people to take advantage of all of the "golden" opportunities Cuba will have to offer. This book or an updated version in the same format will be exactly what one needs to make the move and succeed. Bravo! Bravo!

Summary: Informative, but very poorly written
Comment: If the book didn't read like a high school term paper I would have given it five stars. The information contained in the book is very insightful. I just had a hard time with the poor grammer and spelling. I'm no english professor, but this was really bad. I felt like I was reading something written by a fifteen year old. Not only did the editor not run a spell check he didn't even proof read it.
If you can get past the poor writing style this book will be well worth your money if you are thinking of moving to Cuba. It is obvious though that the author was not a business major. So don't expect too much about investing in Cuba.
