Beskrivning
In Un-American Activities, Gary May tells the fascinating story of William Remington-a story of intrigue, injustice, government corruption, and anti-Communist hysteria. May searched through FBI files and government documents, waging an epic battle against then-U.S. Attorney Rudolph Giuliani to become the first historian to obtain access to grand jury records. The result is a brilliant account of one man's tragic odyssey and a government run amok. May's account offers insight into the depth of Soviet penetration into wartime America. He brings his considerable analytical and narrative skills to bear on one of the forgotten stories of the McCarthy era, uncovering a gripping tale of espionage, corruption, and personal tragedy.

Recensioner i media

“Gary May vividly and painstakingly takes us back to the McCarthyite horrors of the late 1940s and early 1950s, while putting the complex, tragic figure of William Remington back into our accounts of that era.”-Walter LaFeber, Cornell University
