Jane Franklin

Jane Morgan Franklin was an American historian and scholar with a particular focus on Cuba–United States relations. Her 1992 book, The Cuban Revolution and the United States: A Chronological History, is regarded as encyclopedic, systematic, and based on "extremely wide-ranging research". She was a proponent of normalized relations between the two nations. In addition to Cuba, she wrote about Vietnam, Nicaragua, El Salvador and Panama. Her book Vietnam and America: A Documented History, which she co-edited, was described by The New York Times as a "valuable anthology of crucial texts and records [that] replays the bitter conflict that cost more than 58,000 American lives." During the 1960s, she and her husband H. Bruce Franklin became radicalized because of the Vietnam War and were regarded as leaders in the anti-war movement.
