Publisher's Summary
The diary and letters I wrote when I experienced the coup d'état that ousted Salvador Allende in Chile on Tuesday morning, 11 September 1973. This coup was carefully planned by the Chilean elite with the help of the CIA, and included propaganda, economic sabotage, torture, total press censorship, assassination, and a radical free market revolution leading to a gross gap between rich and poor. It calls into question former President Jimmy Carter's thesis that America's values only became endangered under the government of George Bush Jr. See: Jimmy Carter, Our Endangered Values: America's Moral Crisis (2006).
