NOTES

A very interesting investigation authored by a 1950s-era journalist attempting to demonstrate the innocence of Alger Hiss - a former important US State Department official who was accused of communist subversion and espionage on behalf of the Soviet Union. Author insists that the case against Hiss was never adequately proven and that insufficient documentation and testimony was brought forth during the Hiss hearings. Book raises important questions about the flawed nature and questionable proceedings of American justice
