Glossary of Organizations and Spanish Terms. Bibliography. Index. Signed by author on the fep. The author, a journalist who lived in Nicaragua from 1983 to 1991, reveals the truth about the first American killed by the CIA-backed Contras--an idealistic young engineer from Oregon whose efforts to make the country more self sufficient made him a target. Kruckewitt visited Guatemala in 1980 for an undergraduate program, but the program was canceled due to the extent of political violence in the country at that timeKruckewitt described seeing the bodies of assassination victims in two separate incidents in a single week. From 1983 to 1991, Kruckewitt lived in Nicaragua, reporting on the Contra War for ABC Radio. In 1989, Kruckewitt traveled to Panama and reported on the U.S. invasion of that country. Kruckewitt had known Linder personally, meeting him on several occasions when they both worked in Nicaragua. In 1995, assisted by fellow journalist Paul Berman, she located and interviewed a Contra who claimed to have been involved in Linder's killing and in 1999 she published the first biography of Linder. Noam Chomsky described the book as "a poignant and gripping tale," The University of Oregon archives contain a Ben Linder collection that includes drafts and outlines of The Death of Ben Linder, recordings of interviews Kruckewitt conducted while researching the book, and correspondence Kruckewitt maintained with the archives. In 1987, the death of Ben Linder, the first American killed by President Reagan's "freedom fighters" -- the U.S.-backed Nicaraguan Contras -- ignited a firestorm of protest and debate. In this landmark first biography of Linder, investigative journalist Joan Kruckewitt tells his story. In the summer of 1983, a 23-year-old American named Ben Linder arrived in Managua with a unicycle and a newly earned degree in engineering. In 1986, Linder moved from Managua to El Cuá, a village in the Nicaraguan war zone, where he helped form a team to build a hydroplant to bring electricity to the town. He was ambushed and killed by the Contras the following year while surveying a stream for a possible hydroplant. In 1993, Kruckewitt traveled to the Nicaraguan mountains to investigate Linder's death. In July 1995. she finally located and interviewed one of the men who killed Ben Linder, a story that became the basis for a New Yorker feature on Linder's death. Linder's story is a portrait of one idealist who died for his beliefs, as well as a picture of a failed foreign policy, vividly exposing the true dimensions of a war that forever marked the lives of both Nicaraguans and Americans.
