The Age of McCarthyism: a Brief History With Documents
- Binding: Paperback
- Publisher: St. Martin's Press
- Publish date: 12/01/1999
Description:
This documentary history fills a long-standing need for a short yet comprehensive treatment of McCarthyism. The book is divided into two sections. The first is a compelling essay of about one-hundred pages in which the author discusses the origins and escalation of the anti-Communist campaign in the U.S. in the thirties and forties and how that campaign functioned and eventually sputtered to an end in the fifties. The second part of the book consists of twenty-two original documents - transcripts from congressional hearings, FBI reports, speeches, etc. - which illustrate the issues and events the author discusses in her essay. Also included in the volume is an extensive bibliographical essay on scholarly debates surrounding McCarthyism from the 1950s onward, a chronology, and photographs and cartoons from the period.
