1st printing.
By Fred Kaplan.
From the author of the classic The Wizards of Armageddon and Pulitzer Prize finalist comes the definitive history of American policy on nuclear war—and Presidents actions in nuclear crises—from Truman to Trump.
Fred Kaplan, hailed by The New York Times as a rare combination of defense intellectual and pugnacious reporter, takes us into the White House Situation Room, the Joint Chiefs of Staffs Tank in the Pentagon, and the vast chambers of Strategic Command to bring us the untold stories—based on exclusive interviews and previously classified documents—of how Americas presidents and generals have thought about, threatened, broached, and just barely avoided nuclear war from the dawn of the atomic age until today.
Kaplans historical research and deep reporting will stand as the permanent record of politics. Discussing theories that have dominated nightmare scenarios from Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Kaplan presents the unthinkable in terms of mass destruction and demonstrates how the nuclear war reality will not go away, regardless of the dire consequences.
Hardcover, 6-in. x 9-in., 384 pages, Text Only.

1st printing. Written by Chris McNab and Hunter Keeter. Weapons have always attracted controversy. In the modern media age, however, they are also surrounded by confusion and misunderstanding. Tools of Violence unravels the myths of modern weaponry, explaining how a weapon system works, how it is applied by soldiers, police or civilians under pressure, what happens when innocents get in the way, its effect on the human body or physical structures, its political controversies, and its place in international law. Judgements are backed up by interviews with those directly engaged with weapons technology, including frontline soldiers, police officers, academics, weapons specialists and defence analysts. Accessible and absorbing, Tools of Violence is essential reading for those wanting to understand the weapons technology of today and how and why it is used.

1st printing. Written by Michael Gallagher. Art and cover by Jonathan Fetter-Vorm. Trinity tells the history of the race to build - and the decision to drop - the first atomic bomb, and the ethical debates that followed. The story begins with early research in Europe, then shifts to Los Alamos. Fetter-Vorm showcases the strong personalities of the physicists under the supervision of "Manhattan Project" leader, J. Robert Oppenheimer. When the first bomb finally went off at a test site code-named "Trinity," the world was irreversibly thrust into a new and far more dangerous age. Richly illustrated and deeply researched, Trinity is dramatic, informative, and thought-provoking. Softcover, 5 1/2in. x 8 1/2-in., 160 pages, B&W. Cover price $14.95.
