The United States and the Americas
This series is dedicated to a broader understanding of the political, economic, and especially cultural forces and issues that have shaped the Western hemispheric experience, its governments and its peoples. Individual volumes assess relations between the United States and its neighbors to the south and north: Mexico, Central America, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Haiti, Panama, Colombia, Venezuela, Peru, Ecuador, Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay, Argentina, Chile, and Canada. The final volume in the series will be Brazil and the United States.
Lester D. Langley is a professor emeritus of history at the University of Georgia. His many books on Latin America and the Caribbean include America and the Americas: The United States in the Western Hemisphere, The Banana Wars: United States Intervention in the Caribbean, 1898–1934, and The Americas in the Modern Age.
