Our Own Backyard: United States in Central America, 1977-1992

Our Own Backyard: United States in Central America, 1977-1992 by William M. LeoGrande
English | 30 Sept. 1998 | ISBN: 0807823953, 0807848573 | 790 Pages | PDF | 48 MB

In this book, William LeoGrande offers the first comprehensive history of U.S. foreign policy toward Central America in the waning years of the Cold War. From the overthrow of the Somoza dynasty in Nicaragua and the outbreak of El Salvador's civil war in the late 1970s to the final regional peace settlements negotiated a decade later, he chronicles the dramatic struggles – in Washington and Central America – that shaped the region's destiny.
