Sinossi
27 ottobre 1962, un giorno soprannominato Sabato Nero alla Casa Bianca di Kennedy. La crisi missilistica cubana è al culmine e il mondo si sta avvicinando sempre di più all'apocalisse nucleare. Mentre i leader opposti della Guerra Fredda, John F. Kennedy e Nikita Krusciov, mobilitano le loro forze per combattere una guerra nucleare per terra, mare e aria, il mondo guarda terrorizzato. Nelle parole di Bobby Kennedy, ''C'era la sensazione che il cappio si stesse stringendo su tutti noi, sugli americani, sull'umanità e che i ponti per la fuga stessero crollando''. In One Minute to Midnight Michael Dobbs porta una nuova prospettiva a questo momento cruciale della storia del ventesimo secolo. Utilizzando una ricchezza di materiale d'archivio inutilizzato, racconta sia la storia umana che quella politica del Sabato Nero, portando il lettore alla Casa Bianca, al Cremlino e lungo l'intero fronte di battaglia della Guerra Fredda. L'avvincente narrazione di Dobbs presenta un cast di personaggi, tra cui veterani sovietici mai intervistati prima da uno scrittore occidentale, con storie uniche da raccontare, testimoni di una delle più grandi mobilitazioni di uomini e mezzi dalla Seconda guerra mondiale.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. October 27, 1962, a day dubbed Black Saturday in the Kennedy White House. The Cuban missile crisis is at its height, and the world is drawing ever closer to nuclear apocalypse. As the opposing Cold War leaders, John F. Kennedy and Nikita Khrushchev, mobilize their forces to fight a nuclear war on land, sea and air, the world watches in terror. In Bobby Kennedy's words, 'There was a feeling that the noose was tightening on all of us, on Americans, on mankind, and that the bridges to escape were crumbling.' In One Minute to Midnight Michael Dobbs brings a fresh perspective to this crucial moment in twentieth-century history. Using a wealth of untapped archival material, he tells both the human and the political story of Black Saturday, taking the reader into the White House, the Kremlin and along the entire Cold War battlefront. Dobbs's thrilling narrative features a cast of characters - including Soviet veterans never before interviewed by a western writer - with unique stories to tell, witnesses to one of the greatest mobilizations of men and equipment since the Second World War. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR001689774
