Storm over Chile

Samuel Chavkin

In 1988, Chileans of all political persuasions voted in a national plebiscite against General Augusto Pinochet's remaining in power for another eight years. Why and how the protest against Pinochet's repressive rule has intensified is vividly reported by Samuel Chavkin in this revised, updated version of Storm Over Chile. Spanning sixteen years of tyranny, from the time the junta usurped the legally elected government of Salvador Allende to the present, when Pinochet is attempting to undermine the operation of his successor government. Storm Over Chile remains an unparalleled account of the Chilean story.
