Witch Hunt
Autor Andrea Balis, Elizabeth Levy Ilustrat de Tim Foleyen Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 apr 2024 – vârsta până la 14 ani
At the cusp of the Cold War, Americans were so afraid of communists living among them that they began to hunt them like witches. As Senator Joe McCarthy took up this mantle to hunt down "communists" in the US, citizens grew terrified of being accused, so they turned on each other - pointing fingers at neighbors, friends, and even family.
Told through a unique and inviting screenplay-format, brought to life with dozens of illustrations by Tim Foley, and comprised almost entirely of quotes derived from primary sources, Witch Hunt recounts the political craze that gripped America during the Red Scare when McCarthyism forced people to go to extraordinary lengths to keep themselves and their families safe from persecution against their own government.
