Thirty Years of Treason: Excerpts from Hearings Before the House Committee on Un-American Activities 1938-1968 (Nation Books)

The testimony that the author has gleaned for this book from the thirty-year record of the House Un-American Activities Committee focuses on HUACâ€™s treatment of artists, intellectuals, and performers. This highly readable and absorbing collection of significant excerpts from the hearings shows with painful clarity how HUAC grew from a panel that investigated possible subversive activities in a â€œdignifiedâ€ manner to a huge, unrelenting accusatory finger from which almost no one was safe. This book serves as a warning for the future and creates living history from the documentary record. â€œThe basic document with which all future studies of the [House Un-American Activities] Committee will have to begin.â€ â€”Dalton Trumbo â€œ...what he has done is give us HUAC as spectacle, and the perspective is shattering.â€â€”Victor Navasky, The New York Times
