This book is for Mark and Hubert.
First words
Ours is the story of Latin America, of that generous span which stretches from the southern border of Texas seven thousand miles south to Cape Horn, thirty-two hundred miles at its widest across Peru and Brazil, an area twice... (show all) that of all Europe, two and one-half times that of the continental United States.
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)The discussion of just and friendly relations between the United States and Latin America was once regarded as a pleasant elective; today it has become an imperious necessity.
