Written by Thomas and Marjorie Melville — former missionaries who witnessed the country's upheaval firsthand — the book chronicles the roots of guerrilla insurgency, US interventionism, and the desperate poverty that left millions of Guatemalan peasants landless and disenfranchised. With the urgency of eyewitness testimony and the rigour of political analysis, the authors argue that Guatemala's spiral into violence mirrors the conditions that drew the United States into the quagmire of Vietnam. The work stands as a powerful indictment of Cold War foreign policy and a passionate call for justice for the people of Central America.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48956372287707,"sku":"2026200008614-SECONDHAND","price":10.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/035fbe84-f23a-4002-adc2-31a21ed5729c.png?v=1783500436","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200008614-secondhand-guatemala-another-vietnam","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
