About This Item
Age-toned text is clean and unmarked. Narrow closed tear at the top of the first several pages. Front cover has a narrow chip out the top inside edge. Otherwise the covers are intact and tight. From the back cover, "...the author stated that he expected reprisals from those forces which had used him when he was a paid Government witness and an aide to Senator Joseph McCarthy. The reprisals were not long in coming. And they brought with them grave dangers to freedom of the press in the United States. The publishers...were ordered by subpoena...to turn over all materials of the book, the surrender of which would have prevented the book's publication."
