For the first time, eyewitnesses tell the complete inside story of the CIA's mismanaged and private war to overthrow Fidel Castro. Based on painstaking research and personal interviews with combatants on both sides--including Fidel and Richard Bissell, former CIA Deputy Director--Bay of Pigs uncovers previously secret information and re-creates the events that led up to the confrontation.
