Dew Line: Distant Early Warning, the Miracle of America's First Line of Defense

By Richard Morenus

In the early years of the Cold War, the United States embarked on a massive project to build a series of radar stations across the Arctic. These stations, known as the DEW Line, were designed to provide early warning of a Soviet attack. In this gripping book, Richard Morenus tells the story of the DEW Line, from its inception to its eventual decommissioning. An essential read for anyone interested in military history or the Cold War.
