Item description from seller

First edition. The book, started during a visit to the USA in 1953, uses an eighteenth-century maritime tale of persecution to parallel the acts of the House Un-American Activities Committee in the 1950's. Mostly fictional, and entirely satirical. A fine copy in bright green boards, and a fine dust-wrapper.
