Somoza and Roosevelt : good neighbour diplomacy in Nicaragua, 1933-1945 by Andrew Crawley
"Addressing the political, military, commercial, financial, and intelligence components of US policy from the onset of the Depression to the end of the war, Andrew Crawley analyses the background to the US military withdrawal from Nicaragua in the 1930s, assesses the motivations for Washington's policy of disengagement from international affairs, explores the circumstances surrounding the creation of Nicaragua's National Guard, and discusses US accountability for what the Guard and Nicaragua's government thereafter became under Somoza." - Editorial Reviews
