Evan Thomas, Author, "Ike's Bluff"
Our guest is Evan Thomas, author of "Ike's Bluff: President Eisenhower's Secret Battle to Save the World." The newly released historical narrative details President Eisenhower's eight year term in office from 1953-1961. Thomas suggests that Eisenhower used the threat of nuclear war to prevent open conflict with the Soviet Union while never fully revealing just how far he was willing to go in deploying the weapons.
