About the book
Lloyd C. Gardner examines American military interventions in Latin America during the twentieth century, investigating how the rhetoric of "security" and "democracy" was used to justify operations that often undermined both. A critical work on the history of U.S. foreign relations.
Based on extensive archival research, the book offers a balanced yet unsettling analysis of how imperial powers shape politics and society in foreign lands.
