Age of McCarthyism: A Brief History with Documents

The Cold War was all about psychological manipulation, political manouevers, social deviancy, and the opposing forces of left and right. No bloodshed. Strictly business. This book is a great read for anyone who's tired of drab war novels that are full of mass murder and futile battles over land or religion or what have you. If you love the 1950s, Old Hollywood, American Lit, Marxism, Civil rights, court battles, psychology and rooting for the underdog, you will love this.
