Based on secret transcripts of top-level diplomacy undertaken by
the number-two Soviet leader, Anastas Mikoyan, to settle the Cuban
Missile Crisis in 1962, this book rewrites conventional history.
The "missiles of October" and "13 days" were only half the story:
the nuclear crisis actually stretched well into November 1962 as
the Soviets secretly planned to leave behind in Cuba over 100
tactical nuclear weapons, then reversed themselves because of
obstreperous behavior by Fidel Castro. The highly-charged
negotiations with the Cuban leadership, who bitterly felt sold out
by Soviet concessions to the United States, were led by Mikoyan.
