Cuban Nuclear Missile Crisis 50th Anniversary Basis for E-story Published by Florida Author Recently

Oct. 24, 2012 - PRLog -- Boris, a Soviet nuclear weapons expert, and Juanita, a Cuban singer, meet at a special concert in the Arctic city of Archangelsk and they fall in love. The story takes place in Moscow, Cairo, and Maputo in Southern Africa during the height of the Cold War when the Cuban Missile crisis took place as President Kennedy and Nikita Khrushchev confronted each other and Fidel Castro of Cuba about deployment of Soviet nuclear weapons capable of reaching major American cities.

This E-story has been published on Amazon Kindle and is available immediately in E-book form at a price of $ 0.99 per copy.

The author traveled in the Soviet Union, East Europe, North Africa and Mozambique and describes scenes and happenings of those days rather vividly. He was also involved in research about the Soviet Union and East Europe markets and crossed "Checkpoint Charlie" in Berlin on several occasions. He has a feeling for the suspicious, dangerous and uncertain flavor of those days.

21st Century Research, his consulting business, also evaluates foreign sources including newspapers, magazines as well as radio and TV commentaries because the author is writing a series of fictional and non-fictional books dealing with nuclear terror geopolitics, drone technologies and laser weapons. Boris, the protagonist of the current story appears in other books by the author as a post-Cold War Russian Mafia nuclear weapons smuggler working with terrorist groups who wish to acquire nuclear weapons for blackmail of Western countries to demand minority autonomy or even independence as in the case of Kurdistan.
