The author discusses how America's foreign policy of the 1950s and 60s dictated that it prevent Cuba from falling into Soviet hands. The author also discusses how the invasion plan was rushed and put together by the secretive CIA with very little intelligence gathering. The CIA was also able to deceive the President by into thinking the invasion was necessary. The invasion itself was undone by poor tactical planning and because of security leaks, which meant that Castro and the Soviets knew about the invasion long before it happened.
