<br/><br/> A study of US foreign relations and defence policy under the Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations, which focuses on the controversial deployment of forty-five Jupiter intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBMs); thirty in Italy and fifteen in Turkey. Their deployment was part of NATO's strategic deterrent, but they became near obsolete by the completion of deployment. They were, however, to play a significant role in the resolution of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
