"A fair, fascinating and always accurate account of conflicting personalities and policies." - Robert E. White Atlantic Monthly
"Reading William LeoGrande's 'Our Own Backyard' is a distasteful experience. The book is difficult to stomach precisely because it is such a masterly and comprehensive chronicle of U.S. policy toward Central America in the 1980s....Until scholars are granted access to the hundreds of thousands of pages of still-classified documents, LeoGrande's will probably remain the definitive account of America's part in that murderous conflict." - Benjamin Schwarz December 1998
