Missiles in Cuba Book Description

For many years historians of the crisis have concentrated on the events of those thirteen days in October. Mark White's new study adds an equally intense scrutiny of the causes and consequences of the affair. Missiles in Cuba is based on a wide range of up-to-date scholarship plus Mr. White's own findings in National Security Archive materials, Kennedy Library tapes of ExComm meetings during the crisis, and correspondence involving Soviet officials in Washington and Havana - all newly released.
