Mart?'s song for freedom =

Mart? y sus versos por la libertad
Presents a bilingual biography of Jos? Mart?, who fell in love with the natural beauty of his native Cuba at a young age. At that time, Cuba was a Spanish colony and slavery was the law of the land. Witnessing the cruelties of slavery on a sugar plantation, Mart? pledged to use his writing to advocate for Cuban independence in order to stop slavery. Declared an enemy of Spain by age seventeen, Mart? was compelled to flee, traveling the world before settling in New York City. However, being away from Cuba made him sick until a doctor ordered him to travel the Catskill Mountains, and the beauty of the land once again inspired him to fight for freedom for all men and women.
