The Boomer Generation was the first to live with the real threat of mutually assured destruction. From the beginning of the cold war and Sputnik to the hair-raising reality of the Cuban Missile Crisis, the potential of nuclear proliferation became a way of life. Growing up with the knowledge that, at a touch of a button, millions of people could be killed was one of the most formative experiences for young Boomers. History™ resident historian Steve Gillon tells the stories of the unforgettable events that defined the Baby Boomer generation and changed the world.
