For anyone who's in interested in learning more about bananas, overthrowing governments and installing puppet dictators (before it was cool!) told in a true fast-paced rags-to-riches tale I highly recommend the book: "The Fish That Ate the Whale". So, so good.

Thanks for the recommendation! Bought.

Probably more than 50% of the books I buy come from recommendations on HN, and I've been rarely disappointed.
