1.Dark Alliance : The CIA, the Contras, and the Crack Cocaine ExplosionDark Alliance : The CIA, the Contras, and the Crack Cocaine Explosion
from Seven Stories Press

Customer Review:
Ollie North was the greatest man this nation ever made! Don't believe these conspiracy theories! Gary Webb shamed himself with his 100% unsourced crackpot speculations so much that he committed suicide, by two shots *TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD.*

4.Blood of Brothers: Life and War in Nicaragua (David Rockefeller Center Series on Latin American Studies)Blood of Brothers: Life and War in Nicaragua (David Rockefeller Center Series on Latin American Studies)
from David Rockefeller Center for Latin American Studies
Price: $12.89

Customer Review:
An excellent recent history of the struggles and conflicts in Nicaragua. It clarified the situation there. Even having been in Nicaragua, it seemed most difficult to get to the factual source of conflict there. It is a difficult subject for Nicaraguans to speak about as they try to unify and uplift... more info

5.A Guide to the Birds of PanamaA Guide to the Birds of Panama
from Princeton University Press
Price: $32.97

Customer Review:
It remains the only guide specific to the birds of Panama so a birder headed to that country has almost no choice but to buy a copy. However, this is a 1989 update to a work originally completed in 1974 and it is sorely lacking many features that are incorporated into the "modern" field guides... more info

6.[no image]The Jaguar Smile: A Nicaraguan Journey
from Penguin (Non-Classics)

Customer Review:

Rushdie provides a balanced view of the conditions in 1987 that coinside with my seminar work there in 1988. The 1997 preface to the original is helpful. He captured the sence of it.

from W. W. Norton & Company
Price: $16.20

Customer Review:
We at this point in history are required to grow misty eyed at the sudden recent discovery some twenty years later of alleged carefully hand written diaries beautifully bound of the now hallowed Reagan's recollections of times and events he later swore under oath he could not recall. We must... more info

9.[no image]My Car in Managua
from University of Texas Press

Customer Review:
Once upon a time, as I remember, there was a country called Nicaragua. It was in the news every day. Revolutionaries had taken it over. This was perceived as a great threat to our nation, (the USA)---a well-known military pushover with a decrepit economy which could easily have been totally... more info

10.Nicaragua, 4th EditionNicaragua, 4th Edition
from Westview Press
Price: $27.00

Customer Review:
This is written in a remarkably even-handed register when you consider the outrageous (imperial?) actions of the US over the years, regarding Nicaragua. I also found the explanation of dependent economies (where most of the effort goes into goods for export rather than goods for the common good!)... more info
