Reviews for Red Scare: Right-Wing Hysteria, Fifties Fanaticism, and Their Legacy in Texas
Red Scare was first published in 1985. Its message is very important in this day of groups thinking others are unpatriotic and wanting to do away with traditional values. Differing opinions do not mean others are un-American and the book makes that point very well.
