Description: "An articulate defense of the military interventions of 1924 and 1973 by a retired Army general and loyal backer of Pinochet. Some will challenge his assessment of the crises that gave rise to the coups. Others will ask if the military's cure was not worse than the disease at which it was aimed. But virtually all are likely to question his insistence on full autonomy and political competence for the armed forces, in defense of which he invokes Spanish falangist José Antonio Primo de Rivera"--Handbook of Latin American Studies, v. 57.
