5.0 out of 5 stars
Clear-headed approach to an interesting topic,

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Missiles in Cuba: Kennedy, Khrushchev, Castro and the 1962 Crisis (American Ways Series) (Hardcover)
In the wake of the Iraq invasion, it is wise to remember an international incident nearly 40 years ago that also involved a third world country with weapons on mass destruction. Professor White shows that both the Kennedy and the Khrushchev adminstrations, after fumbling at the start, were able to balance and sort out a very deadly game of nuclear chess. The recent film Thirteen Days shows the American side, but White expands to show the game being played in the Kremlin as well. Professor White writes in a very lean manner and his conclusions are well grounded. There is no better introduction to the issues behind and the events unfurling during the missile crisis.
