Introduction: In this present edition, Lo Bartolo Helps us to discover Havana’s Chinatown. Here and now in these pages, we have, free from enigma and mystery and contrary to what they have been teaching us for decades, the Chinese of today’s Cuba: old and young ,men and woman, born in China, in California, or in Cuba.

Day after day, month after month of what was going to turn out to be a long and difficult job, Lo Bartolo came into the Chinese Quarter armed with an almost Chinese patience and began to gain the confidence of the population…slowly, accurately and amicably. He began to seduce the people and get them interested in his project of graphically documenting the quarter and its inhabitants.
