5.One Minute to Midnight: Kennedy, Khrushchev, and Castro on the Brink of Nuclear WarOne Minute to Midnight: Kennedy, Khrushchev, and Castro on the Brink of Nuclear War
from Knopf
Price: $10.61

Customer Review:
Dobbs is obviously a talented researcher, but some of his prose is appalling. Most of this book reads like a mediocre college dissertation and the repetitive nature of some of the anecdotes is jarring. The stuff in here is fascinating, it's a shame it was let down by weak editing.

Customer Review:
It makes for a nice title, but although there are 10 main chapters, only seven of them are actually cocktails, including chapters named Grog, Flip, Planter's Punch, Daiquiri, Rum and Coca-Cola, Mai Tai, and Mojito. The other three - Kill-devil, Medford Rum, and Demon Rum are actually phrases... more info
