Rebel Book Club Bristol x CRISIS RESPONSE
About this Event
About the book:
Until now, no one outside official circles has known exactly what would happen if a rogue state launched a nuclear missile at the Pentagon. Second by second and minute by minute, these are the real-life protocols that choreograph the end of civilization as we know it. Based on dozens of new interviews with military and civilian experts who have built the weapons, been privy to the response plans, and taken responsibility for crucial decisions, this is the only account of what a nuclear exchange would look like.
Why we chose it: "Essential if you want to understand the complex and disturbing details that go into a civilization-destroying decision to drop the Bomb on an enemy.” - The New York Times
Delicious drinks are included, as well as engaging storytelling and space for conversations and sharing your own journeys across countries and continents.

Biggest RBC impact: "For me RBC is about meeting new people and being surprised, challenged or moved by what they share. There are not many places were curious people get together just to listen and learn from each other. In my favourite sessions I come away with an idea I hadn't heard before or another book, podcast or film recommendation to follow up on."
Her top book recommendations at the moment are:
- A Waiter in Paris by Edward Chisholm
- This is an Uprising by Mark Engler and Paul Engler
- Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert
