IPPY Award for Best Regional HistoryReaders Favorite AwardWhat happened in Vermont when the anti-Communist fear known as the Red Scare swept the country? Quite a bit as it turns out. Rick Winston explores some forgotten history as we see how a small rural rock-ribbed Republican state with a historically libertarian streak handled the hysteria of the time. Far from the klieg lights of Washington D.C. Hollywood and New York City the Green Mountain state challenged the national narrative with its own fascinating stories. Here are nine of the most gripping dramas played out in Vermont during scoundrel time including a high-profile academic firing controversies involving left-leaning summer residents courageous newspaper editors who spoke out against McCarthys tactics and a conservative senator who helped take down Joseph McCarthy. Now as our country again experiences a political atmosphere charged with intolerance condemnation and widespread falsehoods this book could not be more timely.
