Book: Cowboy In Caracas: A North American's Memoir of Venezuela's Democratic Revolution
$14.00
BK-CIC
by Charles Hardy • 145 pages • Curbstone Press, Willimantic, CT
"An old and evil way of life is dying and those who enjoyed it are fighting to survive..."
• "Charles Hardy has given us a unique persective on the Chavista revolution as viewed from a cardboard shack on a hillside barrio in Caracas. Writing in a graceful and conversational style in a series of vignettes, Hardy conveys with genuine affection and admiration the dignity and courage of the ordinary people of Venezuela – people whom the western media, enscounced in fine hotels or toney apartments, only know as maids and waiters. A reader comes away understanding both why Hugo Chavez is loved by these people – and why the U.S. government is trying so hard to oust him. With the Bush administration still trying to demonize Chavez and his backers, this book is a must-read for all Ameicans – but a must-read that you won't be able to put down." – Dave Lindorff, columnist for Counterpunch, Salon.com and author of The Case For Impeachment (2006)

• "No matter what your political leanings may be, this film should be considered mandatory viewing." – Seattle Times
Made all the more timely by recent U.S. invasions and the current "war on terror," this riveting classic expose has been called "tough, provocative, highly opinionated...an answer to the official U.S. government line about the 1989 invasion of Panama." (N.Y. Times) This Director's Cut features 80 minutes of bonus features. Young people in their twenties and younger, whio don't remember this, need to learn about it, to understand the recent, bloody history of recent U.S. intervention.
Acclaimed filmmakers Trent and Kaspar uncover the real reasons for the internationally condemned attack, revealing Noriega's longstanding relationship with the CIA, ther DEA and George Bush, Sr., nd unsparingly point the blame at all involved. Utilizing devastating video footage, expert commentary and eyewitness testimony, the film explores a cover-up hauntingly relevant today, while network news clips and media critics contribute to a staggering analysis of media control and self-censorship used to deceive the American public.
