The Fear of Conspiracy : Images of Un-American Subversion from the Revolution to the Present, Paperback / softback Book

The Fear of Conspiracy : Images of Un-American Subversion from the Revolution to the Present Paperback / softback

Edited by David Brion Davis

Paperback / softback

Description

First published by Cornell in 1971, The Fear of Conspiracy brings together eighty-five speeches, documents, and writings-the authors of which range from George Washington to Stokely Carmichael-that illustrate the role played in American history by the fear of conspiracy and subversion.

This book, documenting two centuries of conspiracy-mongering (1763-1966), highlights the American tendency to search for subversive enemies and to construct terrifying dangers from fragmentary and highly circumstantial evidence.
