About this listen

Welcome to the Timeline 10/27/62 prequel series COUNTDOWN TO WAR starting in October 1961 and concluding when the world goes mad during the last weekend in October 1962.

In Washington DC the Kennedy Administration is preoccupied with Cuba, troubles in the deep South, and seemingly falling behind in the space race; it has problems enough at home and the mid-terms are already on the not so distant horizon. And besides, viewed from Capitol Hill, the frontline of the Cold War is an awfully long way away.
