About this ebook
During the Cold War between Russia and the United State, with the doomsday clock at three minutes to midnight, small groups of protestors risked their lives and freedom in civil disobedience at nuclear weapon's sites. Join a rabble rousing Catholic priest and Methodist minister, a kindergarten teacher, and a Quaker homemaker, as they symbolically beat swords into plowshares, or in this case, hammer on a B-52 bomber. Arrested and spending time in jail, they bought the world time through doing time.
Experience another time and understand of why people take such risks
