Between God and the Party: Religion and Politics in Revolutionary Cuba, John M. Kirk's 1989 scholarly history from the University of South Florida Press, now distributed as the University Press of Florida, is a full academic history of the Catholic church in Cuba from the colonial period through the 1980s, covering the 1976 constitution's atheist declaration and the bar on Communist Party membership for believers. Its strength is that it is a full academic history spanning the colonial period through the 1980s. Its limit is that it predates the 1998 papal visit and the 1992 constitutional amendments' full effect, both sourced separately in this fact.
