"Wit has written a gripping book on a difficult subject. His anecdotes and sketches of the players on both sides bring the book to life."--Stephen Mercado, NK News "Astute. Fast-paced and eye-opening."-- Kirkus Reviews "An essential read for anyone trying to comprehend how the US arrived at a dead end in North Korea policy. Wit's narrative is ultimately a tragic story of missed opportunities to improve relations and slow, stop, maybe reverse the nuclear threat."-- Global Asia "A remarkable history of US nuclear diplomacy with North Korea [which] reveals many details of engagement and disengagement by the Obama, Trump, and Biden Administrations."-- Science & Global Security "An extraordinarily well-written and insightful history of U.

S.-North Korean relations over the last thirty-five years--with all the messy, fascinating bureaucratic politics from which policy emerged. Wit offers sound advice and fair warning for future diplomacy."--Robert Gallucci, Georgetown University "Thoroughly researched and admirably readable, Fallout is the best book ever written on U.S. nuclear diplomacy with North Korea."--Leon V. Sigal, author of Disarming Strangers: Nuclear Diplomacy with North Korea "An action-packed insider's look at the course of recent U.

S. interactions with North Korea, from 'fire and fury' to 'beautiful love letters'; a must read for those interested in U.S. foreign policy and Korea."--Susan Thornton, former Acting Assistant Secretary of State.
