MIAMIHundreds of people stopped by the Pathfinder Press booth November 13-15 at Miami Book Fair International. Participants purchased 89 Pathfinder books. Is Socialist Revolution in the U.S. Possible? was the best selling title with 15 copies, followed by the Communist Manifesto with 10 copies purchased in English, French, or Spanish editions. Four copies of New International magazine and three of Nueva Internacional were purchased. The latest issues of both feature an article on the roots of the capitalist financial crisis. Volunteers at the booth sold 38 subscriptions to the Militant and numerous copies of the supplement containing the introduction to Malcolm X, Black Liberation, and the Road to Workers Power, a Pathfinder title coming soon. Many picked up books and literature about the international campaign to free five Cuban revolutionaries unjustly held in U.S. jails for 11 years now, known as the Cuban Five.
