Written by a prize-winning NPR veteran who spent years covering Latin America, this blend of biography, history, and political reporting details the events that lead to the American invasion of Panama.

This book is amazing and is a great read for anyone who wants to learn about Panama and Latin America during the 1960-1990. it covers the rise of Manuel Noreiga not soo well known now but he was Americas man in the 1980s you also get to learn about Omar Torrijos the man who had to die so that Panama can live. The book is fast paced non fiction and non academic either it flies by fast as well.

it does a great job of Covering Manuel Noriega from his rise to his arrest in the 1989. At certain points he feels more like a character straight out of a tom clancy novel then a real person. but you understand and see how he caused his own downfall because of how untouchable he thought he was. it's also an interesting read the paints America as much more then an evil empire and how the pettines of one wimp eventually destroyed Panama I am referring to Bush of course. definitely give it a chance it gives a great idea into the mentality of someone who is about to lose power this is especially relevant with the recent events in Syria and even the recent Iran Israel war.

how far will one man's hubris go?

Very enjoyable, wonderfully detailed and well paced. Credit to the author . Loathsome as he was, he was a product of his CIA training and childhood.No one comes out smelling of roses.

Fantastic read
