Store description excerpt
**October 1962.** American reconnaissance aircraft return with photographs revealing Soviet nuclear missile sites under construction in Cuba. Within hours, the United States and the Soviet Union are locked in the most dangerous confrontation in human history. For thirteen days, the world stands on the brink of nuclear war. The Cuban Missile Crisis Atlas lets you experience those extraordinary days as they unfolded—moment by moment. Through interactive maps, original artwork, and richly connected historical narratives, follow the political decisions, military deployments, diplomatic negotiations, and acts of courage that determined the fate of the world. More than a collection of articles, The Cuban Missile Crisis Atlas reveals how every event, person, and location fits into the larger story. Follow the crisis from Fidel Castro's revolution and the failed Bay of Pigs invasion through Operation Anadyr, the discovery of the missile sites, President John F. Kennedy's televised address, the naval quarantine, secret negotiations, and the peaceful resolution that narrowly avoided global catastrophe. ## Inside the Atlas • **30 historical moments** following the crisis from its origins to its dramatic conclusion • **21 historical figures**, including John F. Kennedy, Nikita Khrushchev, Fidel Castro, Robert Kennedy, Curtis LeMay, Adlai Stevenson, Vasili Arkhipov, and many of the leaders who shaped history • **20 historic landmarks**, including missile sites, military bases, naval locations, and government buildings central to the crisis • **8 in-depth stories** exploring the origins, events, and lasting legacy of the Cuban Missile Crisis • **83 original illustrations** created exclusively for the app ## Follow the Crisis as It Happened History did not unfold all at once. Every discovery, decision, and diplomatic exchange changed what happened next. Follow the crisis day by day as reconnaissance photographs reveal the Soviet missiles, American leaders debate their response, Soviet ships approach the quarantine line, and quiet diplomacy ultimately prevents catastrophe. Learn how a little-known Soviet naval officer named **Vasili Arkhipov** may have saved the world by refusing to authorize the launch of a nuclear torpedo during the Cuban Missile Crisis. Powerful cross-references connect every historical figure, landmark, story, and event, helping you understand not only what happened, but why it happened. ## Interactive Maps Every historical moment, landmark, and key figure appears where history happened. Explore Cuba, Washington, Moscow, and the Caribbean through interactive maps and satellite imagery. Follow reconnaissance flights, missile deployments, naval movements, diplomatic missions, and the locations where history nearly took a very different course. ## Listen as History Unfolds The Cuban Missile Crisis Atlas isn't just designed to be read—it's designed to be experienced. Listen as each moment, story, and landmark comes alive throug
