Book Description

A masterful analysis of the most dangerous nuclear confrontation of the 21st century. - Foreign Affairs

On February 27, 2019, Indian and Pakistani fighter jets engaged in aerial combat over Kashmir for 27 minutes-the first such encounter between nuclear-armed powers since the end of the Cold War. What began with a suicide bombing in Pulwama escalated to airstrikes on Pakistani territory and could have spiraled into catastrophic nuclear war. Former U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo would later reveal that the world came perilously close to nuclear conflagration during this crisis.
