...commanders to key units, and boldly passed over senior pro-Acción officers to pick his Defense Minister. When the army's top general, Pablo Antonio Flores, openly grumbled, Caldera abruptly removed him from active service and now plans to send him into what Latin Americans call "golden exile" as ambassador to a Central American country...
There was so much activity on so many campuses that handling the voluminous files called for a team effort by the New York staff. Contributing Editors Judson Gooding, Marshall Burchard and Frederic Golden collaborated with Editors John Elson and Robert Shnayerson on the cover story and "sidebars." They were assisted by Researchers Jane Semmel, Erika Sanchez, Patricia Gordon and Patricia Beckert. For Gooding, the assignment had a sense of familiarity.

...often happens these days, the first step toward reform has turned out to be the shock of failure.

A short time after the earth starts to shudder, the huge, 20,000-sq.-mi. land mass west of the San Andreas fault wrenches itself free from the continent. San Francisco is quickly reduced to piles of rubble, the Golden Gate and Bay bridges col lapse, skyscrapers topple like children's blocks, the freeways crumple into bent, twisted auto graveyards. The lush Imperial and San Joaquin valleys are in undated by floods unlike anything since the days of the Ark. Los Angeles, Santa Barbara and San Diego all disappear...
