From the dust jacket flap: "James A. Wechsler is the fighting editor of the liberal, anti-communist New York Post, a paper which has crusaded vigorously against communism and McCarthyism. In May, 1953, more than fifteen years after he had quit the Young Communist League - and in the face of Wechsler's long record of subsequent anti-communism - he was called before Senator Joseph McCarthy's committee and accused of still being a communist. In this nightmare proceeding, Wechsler fought back. He did not plead any privilege or immunity. He had nothing to hide. He answered every question - and his answers were a dramatic chapter in the battle for press freedom..." Condition: Straight, clean and tight. No ownership, no writing.
