And maybe the book is shite. In which case, it still makes sense to have an intelligent leftie review it, and I am offering that opportunity.

----- Original Message ----- That book title is vicious. The label "McCarthyism" is a gross obfuscation of historical reality. Truman. Eisenhower. Humphrey. Those are the names that correctly focus the Red Hunt.
On the part of anyone who has researched a book on the period, one suspects the obfuscation is deliberate.

A friend who does publicity for Oxford U. Press is looking for any NYC blogs, listservs, newsletters etc that might be interested in Fordham’s forthcoming book RED APPLE: Communism and McCarthyism in Cold War New York? Free review copies available.
Write me if you're interested,
Joanna
