Confronting the American Dream: Nicaragua under U.S. Imperial Rule (American Encounters/Global Interactions)
“Extraordinarily engaging,Confronting the American Dreamis far and away the best work ever written on the convoluted path of elite/Conservative disenchantment with the U. S. imperial project in Nicaragua. Its relevance to broader historical and contemporary phenomena throughout Latin America and well beyond is really quite remarkable.”— Lowell Gudmundson, coauthor ofCentral America, 1821–1871: Liberalism before Liberal Reform
