Hardback. Zustand: Good. The man who spoke these words was Senator Joseph (call me Joe) McCarthy, Republican from Wisconsin, and when he said them, they were very close to true. In the fearful and unsettled cold war climate of the early 1950s, McCarthy came up with what many seized on as a simple solution to the nation's problems: Search out the Communists in government, education, entertainment, and the armed forces, and get rid of them.
