Talons of the Eagle by Peter H Smith
An interpretive synthesis of US-Latin American relations, which spans 200 years of history, from the Monroe Doctrine to the present day. The author argues that American interests in Latin America have vacillated between the economic and the political.
"Guiding the careful pen that we have come to associate with his scholarship, Peter Smith has produced a book that not only traces the two-century evolution of US.-Latin American interaction, but also explains how this structure continues to influence policy makers and to circumscribe policy
options in the post-Cold War era. Thorough, thoughtful, and provocative, Talons of the Eagle is a compelling synthesis, filling a critical void in our generation's scholarship."--Lars Schoultz, William Rand Kenan, Jr. Professor of Political Science, The University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill
