Jeff Shaara – Danger Close Podcast Episode

The Jack Carr Book Club December Book of the Month is THE SHADOW OF WAR, a book that explores a pivotal moment in history through the masterful storytelling of Jeff Shaara.

In The Shadow of War, Shaara brings to life the intense and complex lead-up to the Cuban Missile Crisis. From the Russian engineers racing against time to construct missile facilities in Cuba, to the U.S. Navy commanders enforcing the “quarantine,” to the behind-the-scenes decisions of JFK, Bobby Kennedy, and Nikita Khrushchev—this work offers a gripping, multi-perspective look at a crisis that brought the world to the brink of nuclear war.

Meticulously researched and vividly written, The Shadow of War is not just a story of conflict but a study in leadership, strategy, and human resilience during one of the most dangerous standoffs in history.

Jeff Shaara is a bestselling American author known for his historical novels that vividly bring pivotal moments of history to life. Jeff is a four-time recipient of the American Library Association’s “William Young Boyd Award” for Excellence in Military Fiction for Gods and Generals, To the Last Man, The Frozen Hours, and most recently, The Eagle’s Claw.
