Review
"Bernard Diederich has made a specialty of writing about some of the least likeable figures in contemporary history--first Duvalier of Haiti and Trujillo of the Dominican Republic and now the Somozas of Nicaragua." -- The New York Times Book Review
"Diederich's perceptive, carefully documented, and readable account, Somoza, casts fresh light on a dilemma that has vexed one U.S. Administration after another. -- Business Week
"[This] book is . . . very much the work of a reporter, setting out in great and readable detail, chronologically, the rise and fall of Tacho II, the last member of the Somoza dynasty." -- New Society
