-W. Craig Reed's explosive book COLD WAR III is, in a word, chilling. Reed's insights on the coming global conflict over Arctic resources is as timely as it is important. Everyone in Washington, D.C. and the Pentagon needs to read this book. And you should, too--before it's too late.---James Rollins, New York Times bestselling author of The Sixth Extinction Don't let the title fool you. This book is not an about the argument for or against climate change. While our personal opinions are important, the opinions and actions of world leaders are far more important, and could have dramatic consequences for us all. More than five decades ago, the world was brought to the brink of destruction when Russian president Nikita Khrushchev sent four submarines toward Cuba. Officers aboard all four subs came within a breath of firing nuclear torpedoes and starting World War III. W. Craig Reed was the first author to bring the entire chilling story to light in his book Red November, wherein he revealed how John F. Kennedy trumped Khrushchev by leveraging a new technology invented by the U.S. Navy and deployed worldwide by Reed's father. In Cold War III, Reed exposes Russian President Vladimir Putin's ultimate plan to dominate world resources, especially in the Arctic, and why the invasion of the Ukraine is only the beginning. Reed also reveals details about another scientific breakthrough created by the U.S. Navy that could pull the rug on Russia, China, and Iran, and make moot the argument for or against climate change. But unless world leaders act now, Putin's plan could plunge the free world into a nightmare scenario of poverty and despair not seen since the Great Depression.
