Yes! I did an entire class on more or less this subject (US-Latin American Relations, or "How the US was Constantly Interfering in Latin America").

Banana Cultures, John Soluri: About the history of banana consumption and farming in Honduras. AMAZING BOOK.

Talons of the Eagle, Peter Smith: I believe this has a chapter about US efforts to undermine Latin American governments that were "too socialist" which talks about Guatemala and Jacobo Arbenz^1.

The Massacre at El Mozote, Mark Danner: And finally, one about El Salvador, but that deals with these mass killings and the horrors that went on in Latin America during this period when the US was interfering.

^1 I had to go look at an old paper to find this one. I know I read about Guatemala specifically somewhere because it made me really angry, and I think this was it.
