Provides a clear and readable description of military combat occurring in Latin America for the years from 1948 to the start of 1982. It traces the many insurgencies in Latin America as well as conventional wars. Among the highlights are the chapters on the Cuban and Nicaraguan insurrections and on the Bay of Pigs invasion. I also explains why of the many insurgencies appearing in Latin America, only those in Cuba and Nicaragua were successful in overthrowing governments.
