The CIA in Guatemala Summary

The CIA in Guatemala: The Foreign Policy of Intervention by Richard H. Immerman

The CIA in Guatemala Reviews

... 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. * The Washington Monthly *
... a damning indictment of American interference abroad. * The Pittsburgh Press *
This story is much more thorough than the recent popularized account of the same events by Stephen Kinzer and Stephen Schlesinger ... * Choice *
