Description

This remarkable document of an era that permanently changed the American political landscape offers firsthand accounts of the 20 years of anti-Communist repression instigated by the U.S. Government in 1947, during which millions of Americans were investigated. Arthur Miller, Alger Hiss, and Pete Seeger join more than 60 others to reveal how the hunt for the "disloyal" penetrated every rank of American life from professors and scientists to schoolteachers and union members and throughout every level of government. Here too are stories from the other side: from an FBI agent, a paid informer, and a government security man, among others. Together these voices capture the sorrow, rage, and heroism of one of America's darkest hours.


Named"Outstanding Work on Intolerance in North America," by the Myers Center for the Study of Human Rights.
