However, when the book was published in a new United Kingdom edition in 1995 by Andre Deutsch, the longer, original text was used.〔 == Plot summary == With the backing of a U.S. fruit company, a court-martialled American army officer and a French advisor, General Alvarez, a deposed Central American dictator mounts an attempted coup d’etat to regain power. The first part of the book is set mainly in jungle, yet most of the military action takes place elsewhere. It was the first of Vidal's books to explore the idea that the United States was an imperialist country.〔
