In 1957, the Strategic Air Command established the Notch Bunker, a three-story hardened facility built into the Holyoke Mountain Range near Westover Air Force Base. The state led the nation with a groundbreaking $3 million underground Emergency Operations Center in Framingham, dedicated on November 16, 1963, designed to run state government post-nuclear blast, capable of withstanding a twenty-megaton missile explosion within three miles. In 1964, AT\u0026amp;T constructed a forty-thousand-square-foot underground bunker in Chesterfield, built for both military and civilian purposes, intended to resist nuclear, biological and chemical attacks. By 1966, there were a total of 6,623 fallout shelters in Massachusetts. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUtilizing vintage photographs and maps, local author Joshua Shanley explores the state's bunkers, bases and missile silos and their impact on current emergency planning.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Joshua Shanley\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1467157899\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781467157896\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e History Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/22\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 176\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Joshua Shanley","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46618106298623,"sku":"9781467157896","price":24.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ac2f72f3-4844-41fd-8b2c-38cec14aa429.jpg?v=1740069183","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/cold-war-massachusetts-joshua-shanley-9781467157896","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
