Il 9 giugno 1956 i generali Tanco e Valle si ribellano alla giunta militare che aveva deposto il presidente Perón. La loro rivolta viene brutalmente e illegalmente repressa e, in una discarica alla periferia della capitale, un gruppo di civili viene fucilato ancor prima che venga dichiarata la legge marziale. Insieme alla collega Enriqueta Muñiz, Walsh comincia a seguire piste, scova i sopravvissuti, ma anche vedove, orfani, rifugiati politici, fuggitivi, presunti informatori ed eroi anonimi, per scoprire cosa è successo davvero quella notte.

The Russian Revolution had a decisive impact on the history of the 20th century. In the years following the collapse of the Soviet regime and the opening of its archives, it has become possible to step back and see the full picture. Starting with an overview of the roots of the revolution, Fitzpatrick takes the story from 1917, through Stalin's "revolution from above", to the great purges of the 1930s.

The Passage of Power follows Lyndon Johnson through both the most frustrating and the most triumphant periods of his career - 1958 to 1964. It is a time that would see him trade the extraordinary power he had created for himself as Senate Majority Leader for what became the wretched powerlessness of a Vice President in an administration that disdained and distrusted him. Yet it was, as well, the time in which the presidency, the goal he had always pursued, would be thrust upon him in the moment it took an assassin’s bullet to reach its mark.
