Summary

History Encounters unearths the greatest stories with the major events from Bay of Pigs Invasionto expand reader horizons for readers to be best informed.

During the Kennedy administration, the CIA attempted to remove Cuban leader Fidel Castro from power by staging the Bay of Pigs Invasion in 1961. The United States government and the Central Intelligence Agency have been plotting Castro's overthrow since 1959. The CIA's chiefs felt that an invasion of Cuba by 1,400 Cubans who had left their homes when Castro gained power would be the last stroke, and on April 17, 1961, they launched this assault. The invasion, however, was doomed from the beginning. Castro's forces were so superior in numbers that the invaders gave up after less than 24 hours.

The book strikes a deep chord with a profound understanding of the wisdom of the natural world and the interconnection of all life forms, even beyond its scientific discourse. Hawthorne promotes a holistic view of health that values the coexistence of people and plants and cultivates a mutually beneficial, sustainable partnership.
