Description: "This book reveals how Guatemalan reactionaries, Caribbean Basin dictators, the United Fruit Company, and the British government opposed the antifascist, reformist ideals of the 1944-1954 Guatemalan Revolution. Their policies set the foundation for the US government's 1952-1954 covert operations that destroyed Guatemalan democracy"--

Review Quotes:

Moulton has unearthed a lot of new material that transforms our understanding of those hidden forces that conspired to terminate the Guatemalan Spring.
