The Cannons of August is one of the most significant historical works of the XNUMXth century. It was awarded the Pulitzer Prize, went through many reprints and was translated into all the leading languages ​​of the world, and President John F. Kennedy recommended it to his entourage during the Cuban Missile Crisis. He saw Barbara Tuckman's book as a vivid description of the avalanche of a slide into war in the face of an acute international crisis, and he feared that in an unstable world with nuclear weapons, a similar situation could lead to even more catastrophic consequences.
... The inexorable logic of events is gradually dragging the powers that, in essence, do not want to fight into a bloody whirlpool. But why do all the numerous attempts to prevent the beginning catastrophe fail?
