| Publisher Description: Diego Garcia is a pivotal US base for all Middle East operations. This book describes its evolution from a secret US-UK bilateral deal in 1966 and the deportation of the native population in the 70s to its new role in Guant namo-style 'renditions' and the impact of miltary construction on its environment. |
