Sommario/riassunto: | An American Stand: Senator Margaret Chase Smith and the Communist Menace, 1948-1972 focuses on the unique perspective of a female Cold Warrior fascinated with the 'masculine' issue of national security. Avoiding any sanitization of the ruthless actions of communists abroad, this study sheds light on why Smith and a significant number of ordinary Americans maintained strident anti-communist views. |
