After the United States showed its hand with the atomic bomb in Hiroshima, the Soviets refuse to be left behind. With communism sweeping the globe, the two nations begin a neck -and-neck competition to build even more destructive bombs and conquer the Space Race. In their battle for dominance, spy planes fly above, armed submarines swim deep below, and undercover agents meet in the dead of night. The Cold War game grows more precarious as weapons are pointed towards each other, with fingers literally on the trigger. The decades-long showdown culminates in the Cuban Missile Crisis, the world's close call with the third-and final- world war"--|cProvided by publisher. 521 Ages 10-14|bRoaring Brook Press. 521 Grades 7-9|bRoaring Brook Press. 647 7 Cold War|d(1945-1989)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01754978 647 7 Cuban Missile Crisis|d(1962)|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00884799 648 7 1900-1999|2fast 650 0 Cold War|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Cuban Missile Crisis, 1962|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Espionage, American|zSoviet Union|xHistory|y20th century |vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Espionage, Soviet|zUnited States|xHistory|y20th century |vJuvenile literature. 650 1 Cold War. 650 1 Cuban Missile Crisis, 1962. 650 1 Espionage, American|zSoviet Union|xHistory|y20th century. 650 1 Espionage, Soviet|zUnited States|xHistory|y20th century. 650 7 Diplomatic relations.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01907412 650 7 Espionage, American.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00915388 650 7 Espionage, Soviet.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst00915419 651 0 United States|xForeign relations|zSoviet Union|vJuvenile literature. 651 0 Soviet Union|xForeign relations|zUnited States|vJuvenile literature. 651 1 United States|xForeign relations|zSoviet Union. 651 1 Soviet Union|xForeign relations|zUnited States. 651 7 Soviet Union.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01210281 651 7 United States.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 History.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Juvenile works.|2fast|0(OCoLC)fst01411637 914 FARM287874 994 C0|bCKE
