Here is what people are saying about the In Focus Nicaragua a Guide to the People, Politics and Culture
3 Star Rating  "A Bit Biased and in Need of Updating"2009-06-20
- Reviewed By kabuka1
After spending a month in Nicaragua, living with a Nica family, I don't feel this book is completely accurate. First of all, it dwells on all the negative things that have happened in Nicaragua in the past (natural disasters, revolutions, foreign intervention) but, in my opinion, it needs to spend more time on the positive and how Nicaraguans have overcome these events. Although I consider myself somewhat left-of-center politically, this book is completely left leaning. I'd like something more neutral. It also blames many of Nicaragua's problems on foreign governments, and whereas there is some truth to this, it isn't accurate to be blamed for everything. Lastly, I feel the informaion is somewhat out of date. Although it says it was updated just two years ago, I don't think much was actually updated and changed.
 
5 Star Rating  "I LIVED FOR YEARS IN NICARAGUA STUDYING CULTURE AND HISTORY AND GEOGRAPHY: THIS BOOK IS AS GOOD AS IT GETS!, "2008-03-25
- Reviewed By vox_clamantis_in_deserto
The only possible improvement would be an updating of this book, now five years later, with the free and fair re-election of Daniel Ortega once more as President of Nicaragua, and moving towards the Bolivariano international movement of Latin America.

This book adequately, clearly and comprehensively covers the history of this nation from William Walker to the aerial bombardment of the civilian city of Ocotal by US Marines to the most recent times, reported very objectively despite what appears elsewhere upon this page by those who might not have seen the same book as the one I received. I find this book very objective, wel-researched, written and reported, and very thorough.

It is a wonderful addition to any school library at any level, and a great resource for anyone interested in learning more about this intriguing and exciting nation. I lived there. This book tells it like it was, and is.

And that excellent cover photo of the woman with the generous warm smile selling tostadas in the market is making my mouth water with warm memories of happier times.

Not only for the student, but also for travellers. Excellent and updated travellers tips are included for which I can vouch, including how safe it once was while I lived there, although less stable now after the intervening US supported Aleman and Chamorro governments which enslaved Nicaragua once more in globalization and sweatshops and slavery.

Very good book to prepare for any trip to Nicaragua. This is a good book, believe me, and the photos are also great. PLEASE DO AN UPDATE SOON!
 
5 Star Rating  "Nicaragua for visitors"2008-03-24
- Reviewed By User: A1MFM612EVEXG
I have gone to Nicaragua two or three times a year over the past 25 years. This little book is a good overview of the country without getting ideological. It is a few years out of date, but it seems to me pretty accurate. I will order it for my university students who go with me next year.

5 Star Rating  "Great Concise History"2006-06-06
- Reviewed By User: A2B091SG2VLUAS
This book is a great quick review of the important historical issues and trends that have affected Nicaraguans. I spent a month in Nica back in Jan 06. I'm looking forward to returning and would recommend this book to anyone going who is interested in understanding where the people have been and where they are going.
 
1 Star Rating  "In Focus Nicaragua ,Pure Drivel"
- Reviewed By Anonymous
This book must have been ghost-written by Daniel Ortega. This is one of the most anti-American books ever written.This book takes a shot at American involvement in Nicaragua in almost every paragraph.This was clearly written by someone(Hazel Plunkett?)with an extemely leftist viewpoint(imagine that).It is nearly a complete work of fiction.
Buy the Moon handbook on Nicaragua instead. It is much better.It covers the same topics (and more) without twisting everything to suit their political agenda(at least not as overtly).
