Description
"This book, written with access to official archives, tells the secret story of Britain's H-bomb, from Cabinet Room and conference table to laboratory, workshop and test range. It describes the work of the scientists and engineers, their personalities and motivations, and vividly presents the weapons' trials at Christmas Island and Harold Macmillan's 'great prize' of 1958 - the renewal of a nuclear partnership with the United States.". "Britain and the H-Bomb answers many questions and may dispel some myths and misconceptions about a controversial subject."--BOOK JACKET.
