But my muse grabbed hold of me once again and I have written a collection of essays that I hope the reader will savor as much as I savored living them and writing about them. “The Fog of War” tells of a traumatic situation in which I came within seconds of shooting and killing a man I believed to be a Vietcong assassin. “Armageddon Over Cuba” tells a first-person account of how close the United States came during the Cuban Missile Crisis to a full-scale nuclear exchange with the Soviet Union. “Russia with Love” relates how the Russians kept throwing beautiful young women at me in hopes of unmasking me as a CIA agent. “China Mission” tells how Chinese officials showed me a super-secret underground bomb shelter in Beijing as part of a clever ploy to open military-to-military talks with the United States. Join me in reliving 33 experiences of a lifetime.
