"Greytown is no more!"
The 1854 Razing of a Central American Port, the U.S. Businesses Behind Its Demise, and the Lasting Foreign Policy Legacy
Kuvaus
The Central American port of Greytown was destroyed by the US Navy in 1854 to ‘avenge an insult to the American Minister to Nicaragua’, according to official history. This book corrects the record regarding the causes of Greytown’s destruction, and challenges case law’s basis in a gross misapprehension of events.
