Interesting, but not totally accurate. Some of the estimations, and proceedures are not correct, but all in all good info for the general public. If you really want to understand it, go get "How to make war" by James F Dunegan. Great book, with much more detail. And folks a 1 killoton yeild would be really good for us. Some have estimated 10 kilotons.

Well, yes and no. 1 killoton, everything in a 1/2 mile radius is gone. 10 killoton, everything in a 3 mile radius. 50 Megaton, everything in a 10 mile radius is vaporized. The soviets tests a 100 megaton bomb.
