Many recent writers have described and documented the technically perfected destruction that must come with a future war--the fast destruction from a flaring rocket or a low-slung tank, the lingering poison of a radioactive cloud.

It ranges from $1,675 f.o.b. Detroit for the three-passenger coupé to $1,795 for the four-door sedan...
