New Book: Operation PBSuccess

Wed Sep 28, 2016 3:06 am

Yesterday, I received my copy of the book "PB Success,"
The CIA's Covert Operation to overthrow Guatemalan President Jabobo Arbenz, June-July 1954"

Written by Messrs. Mario Overall and Dan Hagedorn.

ISBN 978-1-910777-89-3

Helion & Company, Limited, England

This is the "Latin America at War No. 1" book on a series.
It has 112 total pages, profusely illustrated with B&W photos, color maps, diagrams and color airplane plates, lots of photos of Guatemalan T-6s, P-26s, C-47s, as well as F-51s, P-47s, P-38s, the odd A-20 and some civilian aircraft employed during these aerial operations.

I had a small part on the production of this book, by being allowed to review it, comment, edit and make suggestions on the contents. I am glad to see that Mario's and Dan's efforts are now being published.

This would be a good source of information for anyone interested in the obscure aspects of a CIA sponsored and controlled operation, with the emphasis being on aerial operations.
