"A SCARY JOURNEY THROUGH THE MURK OF THE ORIGINAL AMERICAN BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS PROGRAM." —Richard Preston, author of The Hot Zone
This is the first book to expose the true story of America's secret program to create biological weapons of mass destruction. From anthrax to botulism, from smallpox Ebola, the threat of biological destruction is rapidly overtaking our Collective fear of atomic weaponry. Ed Regis's critically acclaimed narrative traces America's own covert biological weapons program from its origins in World War II to its abrupt cancellation in 1969. In light of America's increasing surveillance and condemnation of foreign biological weapons programs, this expose of our own dangerous Cold War secret is both fascinating and shocking. The project, at its peak, employed 5,000 people and tested pathogens on 2,000 live human volunteers, conducted open-air tests on American soil, sprayed our cities with bacterial aerosols, and stockpiled millions of bacterial bombs for instant deployment.
