[net.books] Nuclear Armageddon

bentson (04/07/83)

One of my favorite authors is Hans Hellmut Kirst, a German who has had
many of his books translated to English.  Most of his novels examine
what Nazis have done to Germany, both during and after WWII. One book,
"the Night of the Generals", should be known to many.

Another of his books, "The Seventh Day", examines an inevitable acceleration 
of events leading up to a nuclear exchange in Europe which expands to include
the whole world.  It is so intensely written that when I finished it I just
sat stunned.  I recommend it to all who are following the nuclear freeze 
movement and Pershing missle placement "discussions".
