Focusing on the 1930s, this work examines the American fascination with communism and Stalinism, particularly peaking in 1938 among liberals, intellectuals, and some officials. The author, Lyons, critiques this idolization and its implications for American society. The book's relevance is heightened by contemporary discussions on socialism among young voters and progressives, making it a significant historical analysis that resonates with current political trends.
