This is an engrossing and unexpected historical novel about one of the most controversial figures in American political history - Senator Joe McCarthy.
Senator McCarthy rose and fell in just four years, yet he gave a name, lastingly, to an era. In 1952 he was the most lionized and the most hated man in America. His personal charm and single-minded determination took him from Wisconsin and his indigent life as a chicken farmer to Washington, D.C. as the youngest United States senator. He was a man who bewitched the nation with his claim that Communists had infiltrated the United States government and unleashed a crusade.
