"INTIMATE TIES, BITTER STRUGGLES offers a superb introduction to the major issues in the often turbulent history of U.S. relations with Latin America since the end of World War II. The book is well-organized, well-written, and goes beyond most textbook surveys by probing the 'inner history' of inter-American relations and the undervalued intimate ties between the United States and its southern neighbors. It is essential reading for anyone wanting an up-to-date portrait of inter-American relations." --Lester D. Langley, professor emeritus of history, University of Georgia, and author of THE AMERICAS IN THE MODERN AGE
