About This Book
Reissued with a new preface by the author, The Paraguayan War is an engrossing and comprehensive account of the origins and early campaigns of the deadliest and most extensive interstate war ever fought in Latin America. A 2003 CHOICE Academic Title of the Year, this book sets the stage for The Road to Armageddon. Together, these books fill an important gap in our understanding of Latin American History.
