Nicaragua Story-Back Roads Of The Contra War

A BOLD PEOPLE - A DIFFERENT KIND OF STRENGTH With a twist or two, this original first-hand account documents an extreme moment in time. Heartbreaking, sometimes even funny, it will broaden even the broadest perspective. A freelance journalist on her second trip to Nicaragua reports the unbiased truth of a people's war. Throughout the journey, back story is also provided, as well as clarification of politics and terminology so readers don't get lost along the way. Though 'Nicaragua Story' is something of a 'war book,' it's truthful and shocking history everyone should know. But if you believe the United States can do no wrong, better brace yourself.From back cover: In the 1980s, NICARAGUA experienced an ideology-based revolution rarely seen on the world stage. It was regarded globally as bold and even beautiful. From distant shores, volunteers arrived to support the newly-elected 'Sandinista' government in its quest for self-determination. The only problem, a massive one, was that its neighbor to the north, none other than the USA, violently opposed the Nicaraguan peoples' overthrow of the previous brutal, dictatorial regime-that the US had controlled and sponsored for decades.
