The coverage contained in these files are of events, deliberations, and actions, usually outside of the scope of the jurisdiction and responsibilities of the attorney general. However, robert kennedy's special relationship as both the brother of and special advisor to president kennedy made him the closest man to jfk during the cuban missile crisis. The materials include papers, memorandums, correspondence, reports, notes, doodles, hand written material, accounts of executive committee meetings, and notes on private meetings with president kennedy. Some of the questions that are answered: Why did soviet leader khrushchev take the risk of deploying nuclear missiles on cuba, knowing the americans would almost certainly find out and could not possibly let it stand? What was discussed by president kennedy's so-called executive committee, a.k.a. Excomm, his core team throughout the crisis? Why was kennedy especially worried about the 'submarine surfacing and identification procedures' as formulated by the department of defense? And who decided not to push the button? The very brief history series is intended to give the reader a short, concise account of the most important events in world history. Each book provides the reader with the essential facts concerning a particular event or person; no distractions, just the essential facts, allowing the reader to master the subject in the shortest time possible.
