Here at Hole
in the Head Press we are working on several new
titles that will be offered over the next several years.
The third edition of the popular Rings of Supersonic
Steel is in the works. This new edition will bring
revised maps, new graphics, addtional photographs, and
additional detailed information never before published
about individual Nike units.
Our second offering has a working title of The Last
Missile Site. The Last Missile Site
will bring you details about a specific Nike site. The
book will detail SF-88, currently the only mechanically
operational Nike launch site in the United States. Authors
Stephen Haller and John Martini update their historical
documentation of SF-88 with pictures, diagrams, and interviews
with the men and women who operated one of the last CONUS
Nike launch sites to be operational.
We are working on a large and currently out of print
Cold War classic, To Defend and Deter. This is
over 600 pages of hard to obtain information about the
ICBM systems that we deployed in many states
during the Cold War. Chances are, there's an
old ICBM silo somewhere near you.
Searching the Skies, and The Emerging Shield
are two more out of print books that deliver hard to find
information about the Cold War Era radar systems that
protected the CONUS from attack. We will combine these
two books to create a classic work on Cold War radar sites
and equipment.
The story of the battle of Bodega Bay is still another
project in the works from
Hole in the Head Press. It's the story of how a
small group of local, small town folks up here on the
North Coast defeated Pacific Gas & Electric's planned
nuclear power plant on Bodega Head.
