Bobby At The Brink

As he stared at the grainy, hard-to-decipher CIA photos, Kennedy believed he–and his brother and the Free World–had been double-crossed. The photo interpreters from the spy agency identified four missile launchers and eight canvas-covered trailers carrying medium-range ballistic missiles. The Soviets had sworn, publicly and privately, not to place offensive weapons in Cuba, but these nuclear-tipped missiles could take out Washington in a few minutes. The cold war had just reached its moment of maximum danger....

Book Excerpt The American Religion By Harold Bloom
