Description:

In 1954 a US-backed coup in Guatemala derailed a process of land reform & heralded civil disturbances that lasted 36 years. Daniel Wilkinson relates the history of a war & of an oppression that remains largely unknown to the world at large, but has led to endless suffering for the Maya Indians.
