Max Paul Friedman. Nazis and Good Neighbors: The United States Campaign Against the Germans of Latin America in World War II. New York: Cambridge University Press. 2003. Pp. xii, 359. $30.00.

Based on prodigious research conducted on three continents, it provides a richly textured case study of a failed diplomatic and security program. The book is persuasively argued, lucidly written, and seasoned with black humor. Friedman's timely study merits an audience not only of historians and their students but also of policy makers and informed citizens.	1
Friedman explores the compelling story of the deportation of over 4,000 Germans from Latin America and their subsequent internment in the United States during World War II.
