ONE MINUTE TO MIDNIGHT by Michael Dobbs

The definitive account of the Cuban missile crisis

"A tour de force, a dramatic, nail-biting page-turner that is also an important work of scholarship".--Martin Sherwin. "First rate great history and a great read."--Ray Garthoff. “Dobbs’s hour-to-hour chronology of those tormenting days when the world stood on the verge of nuclear holocaust is riveting." --Dino Brugioni.

Managua Nuclear Storage Site During the Cuban missile crisis, the Soviets stored nuclear warheads for Luna (American designation FROG) missiles at this site. The CIA photographed the site in October 1962, but ruled it out as a nuclear storage site because of the lack of adequate security. Warheads for the R-12 missiles that could hit the United States were stored near Bejucal.
