    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Two Washington, D.C., defense reporters do for nukes what Sarah Vowell did for presidential assassinations in this fascinating, kaleidoscopic portrait of nuclear weaponry.<br/>In <em>A Nuclear Family Vacation</em>, husband-and-wife journalists Sharon Weinberger and Nathan Hodge hit the open road to explore the secretive world of nuclear weaponry. Along the way, they answer the questions most nuclear tourists don&#8217;t get to ask: Are nuclear weapons still on hair-trigger alert? Is there such a thing as a suitcase nuke? Is Iran really building the bomb? Together, Weinberger and Hodge visit top-secret locations like the Isfahan Uranium Conversion Facility in Iran, the United States&#8217; Kwajalein military outpost in the Marshall Islands, the Y-12 facility in Tennessee, and &#8220;Site R,&#8221; a bunker known as the &#8220;Underground Pentagon,&#8221; rumored to be Vice President Cheney&#8217;s personal &#8220;undisclosed location&#8221; of choice. Their atomic road trip reveals plans to revitalize the U.S. nuclear arsenal, even as the United States pushes other countries to disarm. Weaving together travel writing with world-changing events, <em>A Nuclear Family Vacation</em> unearths unknown&#8212;and often quite entertaining&#8212;stories about the nuclear world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Two Washington, D.C., defense reporters do for nukes what Sarah Vowell did for presidential assassinations in this fascinating, kaleidoscopic portrait of nuclear weaponry.<br/>In <em>A Nuclear Family Vacation</em>, husband-and-wife journalists Sharon Weinberger and Nathan Hodge hit the open road to explore the secretive world of nuclear weaponry. Along the way, they answer the questions most nuclear tourists don&#8217;t get to ask: Are nuclear weapons still on hair-trigger alert? Is there such a thing as a suitcase nuke? Is Iran really building the bomb? Together, Weinberger and Hodge visit top-secret locations like the Isfahan Uranium Conversion Facility in Iran, the United States&#8217; Kwajalein military outpost in the Marshall Islands, the Y-12 facility in Tennessee, and &#8220;Site R,&#8221; a bunker known as the &#8220;Underground Pentagon,&#8221; rumored to be Vice President Cheney&#8217;s personal &#8220;undisclosed location&#8221; of choice. Their atomic road trip reveals plans to revitalize the U.S. nuclear arsenal, even as the United States pushes other countries to disarm. Weaving together travel writing with world-changing events, <em>A Nuclear Family Vacation</em> unearths unknown&#8212;and often quite entertaining&#8212;stories about the nuclear world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;]]>

    <![CDATA[&lt;div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Two Washington, D.C., defense reporters do for nukes what Sarah Vowell did for presidential assassinations in this fascinating, kaleidoscopic portrait of nuclear weaponry.<br/>In <em>A Nuclear Family Vacation</em>, husband-and-wife journalists Sharon Weinberger and Nathan Hodge hit the open road to explore the secretive world of nuclear weaponry. Along the way, they answer the questions most nuclear tourists don&#8217;t get to ask: Are nuclear weapons still on hair-trigger alert? Is there such a thing as a suitcase nuke? Is Iran really building the bomb? Together, Weinberger and Hodge visit top-secret locations like the Isfahan Uranium Conversion Facility in Iran, the United States&#8217; Kwajalein military outpost in the Marshall Islands, the Y-12 facility in Tennessee, and &#8220;Site R,&#8221; a bunker known as the &#8220;Underground Pentagon,&#8221; rumored to be Vice President Cheney&#8217;s personal &#8220;undisclosed location&#8221; of choice. Their atomic road trip reveals plans to revitalize the U.S. nuclear arsenal, even as the United States pushes other countries to disarm. Weaving together travel writing with world-changing events, <em>A Nuclear Family Vacation</em> unearths unknown&#8212;and often quite entertaining&#8212;stories about the nuclear world.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;]]>
