Awaiting Armageddon: How Americans Faced the Cuban Missile Crisis
Alice L. George
For thirteen days in October 1962, America stood at the brink of nuclear war. Nikita Khrushchev's decision to place nuclear missiles in Cuba and John F. Kennedy's defiant response introduced the possibility of unprecedented cataclysm. Awaiting Armageddon provides the first in-depth look at this crisis as it roiled outside of government offices.
