(High Noon in the Cold War)
Max Frankel revisits one of the most notoriously tense moments of US history in his new book, High Noon in the Cold War: Kennedy, Khrushchev, and the Cuban Missile Crisis. Abelardo Morell experiments with the notions of outside and inside space in his new book of photographs, Camera Obscura. Media critics Anthony Lappé and Stephen Marshall of the online Guerrilla News Network criticize mainstream news, and offer some important lesser-known stories in True Lies. And Jonathan Sarna examines 350 years of Jewish history in the New World in his new book: American Judaism.
