Daniel Ellsberg to begin writing a 'nuclear memoir'

After Labor Day, Daniel Ellsberg’s Web site, , and some other sites including Truthdig, will start regular installments of his insider’s memoir of the nuclear era—“The American Doomsday Machine”—an Internet book reflecting his earlier classified work and 40 years of research.

I plan over the next year, before the 65th anniversary of Hiroshima, to do my part in unveiling this hidden history.”
