Bøker av William F. Sater

1879 marked the beginning of one of the longest, bloodiest conflicts of nineteenth-century Latin America. The War of the Pacific pitted Peru and Bolivia against Chile in a struggle initiated over a festering border dispute. Employing the primary and secondary sources, William F. Sater offers the definitive analysis of the conflict's naval and military campaigns.

Traces the often stormy course of US-Chilean relations, covering not only policy decisions but also the overall political, cultural and economic developments that formed the context in which these policies unfolded.
