Join author Michael Dobbs for a discussion of One Minute to Midnight, his New York Times bestselling book about the Cuban missile crisis.

Kennedy, Khrushchev, and Castro on the brink of Nuclear War. In October 1962, at the height of the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union came to the brink of nuclear conflict over the deployment of Soviet missiles to Cuba. Author Michael Dobbs has pored over previously untapped American, Soviet and Cuban sources to provide the most authoritative book yet on the Cuban missile crisis. Dobbs take us inside the White House and the Kremlin as Kennedy and Khrushchev--rational, intelligent men separated by an ocean of ideological suspicion--agonize over the possibility of war. 

Co-hosted with Bethesda Metro Area Village. BMAV is is a volunteer organization providing services and community support to allow people to remain in their homes as they age.
