Description
Out of the chaos on a troubled island that produced American troop landings in Santo Domingo on April 28, 1965, Jay Mallin has forged a penetrating eyewitness account that provides the vital facts necessary to an understanding of the Dominican revolt, the American troop landings, and the intervention of the Organization of American States. He has written it fresh from the scene of battle. What began as a revolt by out-of-power forces quickly became a power grab by Castro-trained Communists. The Americans responded with troop landings to protect thousands of foreign residents from a growing bloodbath. Then came the O.A.S. - the latter in a historic move that President Johnson called an "opportunity for a new thrust forward to show the world the way to true international cooperation in the cause of peace" -- P. 4 of cover.
