...dealers, banks that accept large deposits in cash, a police department that seems prone to provoking charges of brutality. The Miami Herald covers its parlous territory as thoroughly and fearlessly as any other city daily, whether in exposing racial discrimination in housing or in probing terrorist acts by anti-Castro Cuban exiles. But it does more. Its reportage of Latin America, aided by bureaus in Rio de Janeiro, San Salvador and, soon, Managua, is among the very best...

Last night at midnight, a Cuban plane arrived in Buenos Aires carrying Emilio Aragones Navarro, the Cuban Ambassador to Argentina, who brought an urgent letter to me from Fidel Castro."
