Oscar-winning director Oliver Stone and historian Peter Kuznick
examine the dark side of American history from the beginning of the
twentieth century right up to the Obama administration. Looking at
American intervention in foreign conflicts in Latin American, Asia
and the Middle East, including taking part in covert operations and
interfering to overthrow elected leaders in favour of right-wing
dictators, they ask whether US involvement around the globe is
about democratic ideals, or political and economic gain. From
Hiroshima and Nagasaki to the Watergate scandal and the
transformation of America into a national security state, The
Concise Untold History lays bare how US presidents have ignored the
constitution and international law to influence the course of world
events for the interest of the few. Based on the critically
acclaimed documentary series of the same name, this book
compellingly unmasks the shocking and unforgettable truth behind
the American Empire.
