Recensione:

"With great courage (many of the sites are still radioactive) and a trained eye, [Goin] captures for us all the true cost of nuclear supremacy with extraordinary color photographs... at once stunning and chilling, presenting powerful visual icons of the nuclear age." -- Michael Toms, New Dimensions

"A stunning look at the effects of America's love affair with the atom." -- St. Louis Post-Dispatch

Recensione:

"Peter Goin's remarkable photographs add a new and startling ingredient to our awareness of the American landscape: a glimpse of a possible future that is no less instructive, no less fascinating than any glimpse of a remote and turbulent past. They have the value of rare works of photographic art; let us hope they remain so." -- J. B. Jackson
