Miller.This visual timeline of the Manhattan Project tracks the unlikely gamble taken by the U.S. government to build massive facilities and solicit the help of top scientists without knowing whether atomic weaponry was even feasible. Nearly two hundred rare photographs are featured, telling the story of exotic nuclear explosive materials and the subsequent Cold War arms race that would ultimately redeem America’s great gamble. 208 pages, 193 B&W photos, 12″x 9″, hardcover.
