ESSAY ON: The Bay Of Pigs - Peter Wyden's 'Untold Story'

Number of Pages 5

This research paper: A 5 page analysis of the Peter Wyden's fascinating book. This is a well-researched, scholarly, historical account, of the disastrous invasion of Cuba in the Kennedy administration, which reads as if it were a novel. Full of dialogue and description, Wyden gives the reader an insider's view of how the plans for the Bay of Pigs Invasion were carried out within the U.S. government; and, in the process, he also gives the reader a clear understanding as to how so many extremely intelligent leaders, America's best and brightest, could think that the CIA plan could work. What he succeeds in showing his readership is that even the best and most well intentioned leaders are not supermen, they are human, and as such, they are capable of error. The Bay of Pigs was-quite simply-a mistake-one of the most dramatic in U.S. history. No additional sources cited.
