Central America

School Library Journal

Gr 10-12-- A variety of authors, conservative and liberal, provide perspectives on questions such as ``Why is Central America a conflict area?'' and ``Is peace in Central America possible?'' The views presented will be useful in explaining the reasons behind these conflicts, and also give speculation about the future of the region. While some of the material will be quickly dated, the periodical bibliographies and listing of organizations concerned with these issues will make the book useful to debators or students working on reports. --Bruce Lee Siebers, Free Library of Philadelphia
