Panama's ultimate history
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
LaFeber book is the ultimate history for US-Panamanian relations. His telling of this history is replete with personal insights into the actors on both sides. I highly recommend this book for anyone interested in a good overview of this often rocky relationship.
