On April 17, 1961 -- 1,500 CIA-trained Cuban refugees invaded the beach at the Bay of Pigs to win back their country from Communist dictator Fidel Castro.

Review:

"In their lively depiction of events as they evolved, these volumes offer a balanced analysis that allows readers to assess the information and draw their own conclusions about some of history's most challenging and sometimes painful episodes."
