The Cold War Comes to Main Street - America in 1950

Summary

Revealing the interplay between foreign policy, domestic politics, and public opinion, the author of this book argues that 1950 was a pivotal year for the USA. The convergence of Korea, McCarthy, and the Bomb, he states, wounded the nation in ways from which it never fully recovered.
