Simon & Schuster Ltd, 2011. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good Condition/Very Good. Clean pages, closed page block lightly age tanned; jacket lightly creased at top of spine. 'Published to coincide with the 50th anniversary of the disastrous Bay of Pigs invasion, Tunzelmann's much-praised book takes readers on a whistle-stop tour of America's relations with its Caribbean neighbours during the Cold War' Independent 19/4 'The agonies the US choices inflicted make for painful reading but Von Tunzelmann's book cracks along at a sometimes blurry pace, highlighting tragicomic anecdotes. This is an impressive attempt to capture the tumultuous events that shook the post-war Caribbean and has left it reeling' Siobhan Murphy, Metro 13/4 'Von Tunzelmann writes with the same verve and range of material she deployed in Indian Summer, a praised treatment of the end of the British Empire' John Paul Rathbone, FT 30/4 528 pages.
