No High Ground

At 8:15 plus seventeen seconds on the morning of August 6th, 1945, the B-29, Enola Gay, flying at an altitude of 31,600 feet over Japan, dropped the first atomic bomb. No High Ground is the story of that bomb and the men who made it happen. Scientists who built the bomb, spies who tried to steal its secrets, government leaders and generals who made the decision to drop it.
