About this ebook
A history and analysis of the United States’ involvement in the deposition of Guatemalan President Jacobo Árbenz and the consequences.
Using documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act, recently opened archival collections, and interviews with the actual participants, Immerman provides us with a definitive, powerfully written, and tension-packed account of the United States’ clandestine operations in Guatemala and their consequences in Latin America today.
“A valuable study of what Immerman correctly portrays as a seminal event, not just in the annals of the Cold War, but in U.S.–Latin American relations.” —Washington Monthly
“A damning indictment of American interference abroad.” —Pittsburgh Press
“A masterpiece of analysis.” —Reviews in American History
