“Deftly written, keenly understood, soft-spokenly incisive, if there's one book about Cuba you read before you go, make it Cuba, Hot and Cold.”—La Bloga
“[Cuba, Hot and Cold] offers a delightful 107 pages of insightful, mostly anecdotal, vignettes spanning history, politics and, of course, Cuba’s often confounding and always defiantly soulful culture.”—Chris Baker
"A wryly engaging romp through the extraordinary Caribbean island nation that Tom Miller knows so well. For the uninitiated, it’s all here: Havana, the music, the Malecón, the ’50s Chevys, Hemingway, Che and Fidel and ‘Remember the Maine.’ But beyond all that, there is a real sense here of the Cubans in all their larger-than-lifeness and smartass wit. If you are going to read one book before you go to Cuba, make it this one, for pleasure’s sake."—Jon Lee Anderson, author of Che Guevara: A Revolutionary Life
