ARMEGEDON OVER CUBA tells a first-person account of how close the United States came during the Cuban Missile Crisis to a full-scale nuclear exchange with the Soviet Union. RUSSIA WITH LOVE relates how the Russians kept throwing beautiful young women at me in hopes of unmasking me as a CIA agent. CHINA MISSION tells how Chinese officials showed me a super-secret underground bomb shelter in Beijing as part of a clever ploy to open military-to-military talks with the United States. Join me in reliving 33 experiences of a lifetime.
