    Summary:

    Dizzying, enraging, and beautifully written, the third volume of Eduardo Galeano's Memory of Fire trilogy, CENTURY OF THE WIND serves up the turbulent 20th century's worth of U.S.-Latin American relations, from the bucolic New Jersey laboratory of Thomas Alva Edison to the armies of Emiliano Zapata and Fidel Castro to the Reagan-era CIA "neutralizations" in the forests of Central America.
