What happens when civilization collapses—and only the elite are saved? In Raven Rock, investigative journalist Garrett M. Graff uncovers the real-life underground bunkers, secret emergency plans, and classified continuity-of-government facilities built to protect the U.S. government in the event of nuclear war. Massive underground cities, hidden from public knowledge, designed to shelter top officials. The secret “Doomsday” plans that dictate who survives in a national catastrophe. How Cold War paranoia led to the construction of vast subterranean complexes, reminiscent of Antarctica conspiracy theories. From the White House’s classified bunkers to underground facilities like Raven Rock and Mount Weather, this book reveals how governments prepare for global disasters—while leaving ordinary people behind. A must-read for those interested in hidden structures, nuclear secrecy, and deep-state survival strategies.
