Book summary

Chambers, a former Communist Party member and "Time" magazine senior editor, earned a place in history for his testimony in the 1950 Alger Hiss trial, which heralded the age of McCarthyism and the rise to power of then-senator Richard Nixon. Chambers eventually became an aggressive anti-communist.
