For the first time in history, American and Soviet fighting men and tanks stood arrayed against each other, only yards apart. One mistake, one nervous soldier, one overzealous commander - and the tripwire would be sprung for a war that could go nuclear in a heartbeat.". Near Fine in Near Fine dust jacket .
