Dalla quarta di copertina
"The definitive job, and I can't imagine what else there is to say about him."—Walter Lippman
"This is an appraisal without apology. If its judgments are uncompromising, they are also given without rancor, indeed with an air of almost sympathetic curiosity about the phenomenon that was McCarthy. . . . It is no surprise that [Rovere's] book is a vividly written, sophisticated recreation of a political episode whose manic qualities already begin to seem unbelievable."—Anthony Lewis

Endpapers have scuffed, ragged spot in the center of the pages near the spine, corners of these pages sort of chewed looking. Text pages are clean and unmarked, no creases or tears, lightly toned. A superbly readable book about America's most famous demagogue. Richard Rovere depicts the extraordinary career of Senator Joseph McCarthyr in all its wild extravagance. 296 pages. 8vo.
