Description

U.S.A: Simon & Schuster, 1988. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine/Fine. 8vo - over 7?" - 9?" tall. Type: Hardback First Edition. Hardcover Book and Jacket As New. Roy Gutman provides this documented indictment of Reagan administration policy toward Nicaragua and other third world countries. His account is based on interviews with key players of involved countries (including Argentina). It is a detailed analysis of how the most unstable political system in Central America became the longest running, most damaging foreign policy controversy of the Reagan years, with a re-creation of the actions and players behind the Reagan administration's inconsistent, ineffective, snd usually deceptive policies towards Nicaragua. Gutman explains the self-promoting roles of William Casey and Oliver North in the formation of policy on Nicaragua and other third world trouble spots. Reagan's cast of amateurs doctored intelligence, obstructed the experts, and thwarted diplomacy. Gutman provides the most revealing record to date of how foreign policy was made, mismanaged and crippled during the Reagan presidency. 404 pages with Notes, Appendices, and Index. 9.7 x 6.25 inches. Simon & Schuster, NY 1988.
