description: New York Times best-selling author William R. Forstchen now brings us a story which can be all too terrifyingly real ... a story in which one man struggles to save his family and his small North Carolina town after America loses a war in one second a war that will send America back to the Dark Ages ... A war based upon a weapon an Electro Magnetic Pulse (EMP). A weapon that may already be in the hands of our enemies.Months before publication One Second After has already been cited on the floor of Congress as a book all Americans should read a book already being discussed in the corridors of the Pentagon as a truly realistic look at a weapon and its awesome power to destroy the entire United States literally within one second. It is a weapon that the Wall Street Journal warns could shatter America. In the tradition of On the Beach Fail Safe and Testament this book set in a typical American town is a dire warning of what might be our future ... and our end.
