Fail-Safe, Eugene Burdick & Harvey Wheeler, Hardcover 1962, Probably 1st Edition

Description: Fail-Safe, Eugene Burdick & Harvey Wheeler, Hardcover, 1962, Probably 1st Edition Here is a 1st edition (although unstated) hardcover of Fail-Safe, published in 1962. No dustjacket. I am not a dealer. This book has been on my shelf, in a non-smoking home, for many years. This 286-page book is in very good condition, with very slight wear on the outer spine. There is a penciled inscription on the first page, as photographed. Some pages have a slight dent in the upper corner, as photographed. From the New York Times–bestselling authors, this “chilling and engrossing” nuclear-showdown thriller packs “a multi-megaton wallop” (Chicago Tribune).Originally published during the Cuban Missile Crisis, this suspenseful novel takes off as a group of American bombers—armed with a deadly payload of nuclear weapons—heads towards Moscow, their motives unknown. Suddenly, a nuclear apocalypse looms closer than it ever has, and the lives of millions depend on the high-stakes diplomacy of leaders on both sides of the divide.The basis for the classic 1964 movie starring Henry Fonda, this two-million-copy bestseller is not only a terrifying thriller, but a fascinating social commentary on Cold War politics and a look at how, in a world poised on the brink, accidents and mistakes can have catastrophic consequences. Exploring the thin line between peace and global destruction that characterized this turbulent era, it is as timely as ever—“gripping, exciting and almost unbearably fascinating” (Los Angeles Times). Message me with any questions or need for more photos. I ship promptly. By Media Mail only to U.S.
