| Summary | "The History of Cuba, vol. 3" by Willis Fletcher Johnson is a historical account written in the early 20th century. This volume focuses on the revolutionary era in Cuba, detailing the political and economic conditions that fueled the quest for independence from Spanish rule. It emphasizes the discontent among the Cuban populace due to oppressive governance and the complexities involved in the revolutionary movements led by figures such as Narciso Lopez. The opening of the text outlines the dire conditions faced by Cuba under Spanish rule, characterizing the period as one rife with exploitation and misgovernment. The narrative presents a detailed overview of Cuba's economic backwardness, the burdensome tax system, and the lack of personal liberties experienced by the Creole population. It sets the stage for the revolutionary movements, particularly highlighting the ambitions of Narciso Lopez, who aimed to liberate Cuba from oppressive Spanish governance. The author provides a vivid context of the political climate, outlining the social dynamics that led to a growing desire among Cubans for freedom and self-determination.
