From dust jacket: In 1952, Random House published Whittaker Chambers's Witness, a memoir of his childhood, early years as a communist writer, work as a Soviet spy -- and, of course, the celebrated trials in which he served as the U. S. government's chief witness against former State Department official Alger Hiss, accused by Chambers of espionage. Witness immediate became a bestseller. It was also immediate recognized by many -- including Arthur Schlesinger Jr., Sidney Hook, and Granville Hicks -- as one of the few truly great American autobiographies. The exceptionally high praise lavished on the book cannot be discounted as the predictable tributes of comrades-in-arms; among the literary elite of the time, Chambers was regarded with varying degrees of odium. He may be telling the truth about Alger Hiss and he may be right about communism, it was sometimes conceded, but he is almost certainly wrong about everything else. In Alger Hiss, Whittaker Chambers, and the Schism in the American Soul, editor Patrick Swan marks the fiftieth anniversary of Witness's publication by anthologizing twenty-three of the best essays ever written on Chambers, Hiss, or both. Taken together, these essays by luminaries such as Leslie Fieldler, Arthur Koestler, Lionel Thrilling, Rebecca West, Murray Kempton, and William F. Buckley Jr. tell the story of these two fascinating (and ultimately mysterious) men and of what they do and their conflict represented. These pieces do not, as a rule, trouble themselves much with the facts of a rule, trouble themselves much with the facts of the case. Hiss's guilt was not so much in doubt then, and is certainly well documented by now. American Biography, American Culture, Americana, U. S. History, U.S.-iana, American History. zslic.
