In 1958, Edward Teller, father of the H-bomb, unveiled his plan to
detonate six nuclear bombs off the Alaskan coast to create a new
harbor. However, the plan was blocked by a handful of Eskimos and
biologists who succeeded in preventing massive nuclear devastation
potentially far greater than that of the Chernobyl blast. The
Firecracker Boys is a story of the U.S. government's arrogance and
deception, and the brave people who fought against it-launching
America's environmental movement. As one of Alaska's most prominent
authors, Dan O'Neill brings to these pages his love of Alaska's
landscape, his skill as a nature and science writer, and his
determination to expose one of the most shocking chapters of the
Nuclear Age.
