- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book was a well writen on the cold war. It has multiple charaters and told through all of their diffrent points. what was amazing is gettinginto the mind of the enemy and see what his plans are. I recomend this book for most but im sure not all would like this book seeing how it is just some submariners shooting missles at people.
