About This Item
Indianapolis / New York: The Bobbs-Merrill Company Inc 1969. First American Edition, sources disagree as to whether the US or the UK is the correct first edition. In any event this Bobbs-Merrill US edition appears to be scarcer than the Rapp & Whiting UK edition]. "Set in a future time when the U.S., Russia, and China have agreed to ban nuclear arms and fight only wars called 'conventionals'...Finally the peace is shattered by a coup led by the American Negro vice-president, Black Boy, and supported by all the non-aligned black nations of the world. The American president is assassinated, and the blacks take control of the surveillant satellite and, hence, the world." 221 pages. Reginald 06638,
