Summary

Based on up-to-date scholarship and his own research in newly released documents, White assesses the causes and consequences of the crisis in addition to providing a day-by-day narrative of the confrontation. His more rounded picture destroys some venerable myths and gives us a much clearer understanding of the policy strategies pursued by the United States and the Soviet Union. American Ways Series.
