Salvador Allende Reader

"On September 11, 1973, General Augusto Pinochet led a bloody coup against President Salvador Allende in Chile. Allende died in the Presidential Palace as it was attacked by Pinochet's army." "Controversy still surrounds the role of Washington and the CIA in the overthrow of the popularly elected government of Allende, a self-proclaimed Marxist. For decades Allende's name and the experience of the Popular Unity government was all but erased from history, not only in Chile but internationally." "This first-ever anthology, selected with an introduction by well-known historian James D. Cockcroft, presents Allende's voice and his vision of a more democratic, peaceful and just world to a new generation."--BOOK JACKET.
