Buckingham puts America in a new light

Dr. Buckingham puts the Red scares and other anticommunist activities in America in a new light, showing that American authorities violated their own concepts of freedom and justice by overreacting, harassing, and otherwise repressing leftist political thought in America. As a student of Dr. Buckingham for a year, the prose in which he conducts his lectures is recreated in a work that flows well and does not get heavily into detail, making it a light and breezy read for laymen or anyone else simply interested in the subject.
