NUCLEAR PLAYGROUND
In the late 1980s it was felt that World War III could start in the Pacific. Originally published in 1987, this book tells the story of the nuclear men in the Pacific and of those people they ‘displaced’ and irradiated. It is also about what these people and their governments had begun to do in response.
