One Minute to Midnight

The detailed recounting makes the events feel incredibly immediate. I'm curious what drew Dobbs to highlight this particular aspect of history.

Reading about the brink of nuclear war was nerve-wracking, but also made me wonder how close we actually came to disaster. Did this evoke similar feelings for others?

The narration added a layer of immediacy, but I wonder if listeners get the same impact as reading the text. Has anyone listened and felt it heightened the tension?
