Summary: The Evil Voice of The Council on Foreign Relations Speaketh
Comment: The Authors, Ernest R. May and Philip D. Zelikow, (both billed as editors-supposedly of the tapes) are members of the super-evil Council on Foreign Relations (CFR,) a secret society founded by the Rockefellers for the sole benefit of the Rockefellers and their small cadre of treasonous lap dogs who control scads of other secret societies under the guise of tax-exempt foundations that collectively, persistently, even feverishly work toward that sacrosanct goal that despots and tyrants like Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, the Rockefellers, John McCloy, Prescott Bush, George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush and Senator John Kerry have sought to enforce upon mankind for centuries; globalization under a New World Order absolutely controlled by the Rockefellers and their cohorts; a world order under one world government under which the U.S. Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and U.S. sovereignty would cease to exist!
Like the Warren Report, this work covers only what the CFR wants Americans to believe on the subject. Americans are supposed to naively believe that nothing else of consequence can be found on those tapes by other researchers. This is utter whitewash. Don't waste a penny on this un-American trash. If you love America and cherish the freedom guaranteed in the Bill of Rights, invest the money you would spend on this propaganda in whatever it takes to ensure that these monsters are stopped once and for all.

Summary: A definite "insiders" tale...
Comment: I'd really like to give this 3 1/2 stars (not quite 4 stars). This book is not for the average history reader...you will be confused and sometimes mis-led as you slog through these transcripts. The saving grace for this book is the authors' interjections at the beginning and end of each chapter to kind of summarize what just transpired (...a complete sentence is a rarity here...just what you'd expect from real time transcripts). Also, the Introduction and Conclusion sections are classic history telling and made me wish that the authors would write their own story of the "Crisis". Overall, worthwile for the Cuban Missile Crisis buff, but be prepared for slow reading.

Summary: Fascinating Actual Account of History
Comment: To be honest, I bought this book used after seeing the movie "13 Days." In fact, I ordered this book the very night I came home from the movie, wondering if it would be worth the money spent.. Now, having read through it, I must admit that this was a very fascinating and intriguing book.
The book is an actual copy (i.e. transcript) of taped conversations that occurred in the Whitehouse during the Cuban Missile crisis. The book was so fascinating for the sole fact that it presents (true to life) all the details which were actually being spoken of, on, about, etc. The reader can actually sense the emotion, tension, anguish, and despair that comes out in some of these conversations. In fact, the intensity in this book puts the movie to shame (which is usually the case with most good books).
This book consists of conversation's of the National Security Council, President Kennedy,Robert Kennedy, and the President's advisors. The book is very revealing and honest (since it is true to life) and it paints a very vulnerable picture of just how easy things could fall apart in this 'invincible' place we call home. Fortunately, we as readers today actually know the outcome is positive. However, the terror comes through the pages when, as I read, the realization that these men have no idea what is going to happen as this whole situation unfolds. That was one of the riveting things about this book.
Overall, this is a great book for those who are interested in American history, or Presidential history, etc. I recommend it, especially since it is so fascinating and also because it is an actual account word for word accurate. That makes for great objective history.
