             I N S I D E   C E N T R A L   A M E R I C A:
         The Essential Facts Past and Present on El Salvador,
           Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, and Costa Rica,
                         by Phillip Berryman.


``Berryman provides an in-depth analysis of [U.S. policy in Central
America]...he adds a profound historical knowledge and keen
political insight"
                _National Catholic Reporter_

"_Inside Central America_ deserves the attention of every American. If
the message of this important book is not heard and heeded, the United
States may have its own Afghanistan in Central America.''
                _Robert F. Drinan, S.J._

"A first-rate effort to inject some reason and facts into the national
debate over U.S. policy in Central America. He writes of a complex
event in a clear, simple style... A useful primer for anyone trying to
understand contemporary Central America's hazardous state.''
                _Kirkus Reviews_

_Inside Central America_ examines crucial questions about the region:
Why revolutions? Why now? Can the United States come to terms with
revolutions? The final chapter contains a framework for a negotiated
settlement that would demand compromises from all sides.

                                Rev. 1987, 176 pages $5.95. 10/$5.00

                         by Phillip Berryman.

Overviews the burning issues in Central America: low-intensity
conflict, human rights, economic development, and their effects on
the specific countries of the region.  Some alternative policies are
suggested.
                                        5 pages. 25 cents, 100/$15

                         by Phillip Berryman.

"Berryman here gives us with admirable conciseness and objectivity not
only the essential facts,but also a framework of meaning... He adds a
profound historical knowledge and keen personal insight.''
        _National Catholic Reporter_

``The best single introduction'' to the subject. Provides an overview
to the history and cultural context of this important religious
movement.
                                        1987 $6.95, 10 or more $5.50

By mid-1985 the New York Times was reporting that the U.S. military
buildup in Central America was aimed at military action against
Nicaragua, and that some U.S. intelligence officials believed
overthrowing the Sandinistas would be easy, "like falling off a log."

In a question-and-answer format, this pamphlet provides an overall
assessment of the Nicaraguan revolution, relations with the U.S. and
current controversies.
                        Revised 1987. 50 cents, 100/$25., 500/$60

AFSC's Nicaragua's School Supplies Campaign provides tools, pencils,
paper, rulers, chalk, note books for learning to children who might
otherwise have little or no way of acquiring the education they
deserve. And they need crayons too -- to bring color and hope and to
help make rainbows possible. Education is important to all of us --
for ALL of our children --

Make a difference in the lives of these children today.
