Review:

THE BRINK is a vivid and frightening description of something very few people have ever experienced: actually taking the nuclear bombs to the brink of war.
by John Chancellor, late NBC anchorman.---New York Times

"The Brink could be the classic novel of the Era of Undeclared Wars."
by William Flynn.---San Francisco Examiner

"This is a first novel that deserves to be read."---The Library Journal

"The Brink" is an eminently successful psychological-action drama, the most vivid novel about the Navy at work I can recall since The Caine Mutiny."
---William Hogan, book editor of The San Francisco Chronicle

From Kirkus Reviews:

A supersonic air adventure which describes night patrols from a U.S. carrier off the Red Chinese mainland in 1958. This story is told via naval officer Charly Rohr, who survives disasters John Wayne never dreamed off. Every horror is penned with graphic detail and reveals the real human beings within the wire-tense pilots. On the brink, all the way.
