Description
Latin American Wars 1900-1941: "Banana Wars," Border Wars & Revolutions The early 20th century saw frequent disturbances in Central and South America, with border clashes, civil wars, and revolutions becoming commonplace. These conflicts, often referred to as the "Banana Wars," involved a range of armies, from lightly armed guerrillas to those operating artillery, armored vehicles, aircraft, and river navies. This book provides a detailed account of these lesser-known conflicts, using color plates and contemporary photographs to illustrate the uniforms, equipment, and strategies employed by the armies involved. Covering wars across the continent, it offers a fascinating insight into the events that shaped modern Latin America.
