and Ernest May of Harvard. One of the best books on perhaps the scariest time to be an American. This 1997 book shed light on the actual goings-on inside the small group dealing with a crisis that threatened to lead to a nuclear nightmare. I think that this episode in our history is the primary reason that people of a certain age have the utmost respect for JFK. In truth, Truman, Ike, LBJ, or Nixon would probably not have resolved the conflict in the manner JFK did.
