Before Midnight: Kennedy, Khrushchev, and Castro on the Brink of Nuclear War (oracle Series)
About This Novel
Reporter Michael Dobbs spent two years visiting Cuba, Russia, the United States and other countries, collecting and consulting archives in English, Russian, Spanish and other languages to comprehensively restore the true face of Khrushchev, Kennedy and Castro during the Cuban Missile Crisis, such as Khrushchev's plan to destroy the U. S. Guantanamo Naval Base, the handling of Soviet nuclear warheads in Cuba, and the wonderful story of a U-2 reconnaissance plane that got lost and strayed into the sky over the Soviet Union. Once this book was published, it received wide acclaim in Europe and the United States, and won the "Washington Post" Best Book of the Year and the "St. Louis Post-Dispatch" Best Book of the Year.
