About the Book

El Cuerpo de Marines de los Estados Unidos ha luchado por Dios, la patria y las bananas


Este libro trata sobre las guerras bananeras que tuvieron lugar entre el final de la guerra hispano-estadounidense en 1898 y la Política de buena vecindad de Franklin Roosevelt en 1934. Podrá ver cómo y por qué los marines estadounidenses invadieron Panamá, Nicaragua, Honduras, Guatemala, Cuba, Haití, México y República Dominicana.
