On this episode of American Prestige, Jonathan Hunt, assistant professor at the U.S. Naval War College and a fellow of the Nuclear Security Program at Yale University, joins us to talk about his book, The Nuclear Club, covering the efforts of a select few world powers to maintain exclusive access to nuclear weapons.

In this first part, we discuss U.S. efforts to maintain nuclear supremacy during the early Cold War, nuclear threshold states, nuclear propaganda, and more up until Eisenhower’s “Atoms for Peace” speech.
