Book Description
Lewis provides a comprehensive, impartial examination of Argentina's "Dirty War." He analyzes the causes, describes the ideologies that motivated both sides, and explores the consequences of all-or-nothing politics. Although the military and guerrillas seem marginal today, Lewis questions whether the Dirty War is really over.
