Pete Seeger vs. The Un-Americans by Edward Renehan

Excellent, a truly enjoyable and informative read.
- STEVE BUSCEMI, actor/director
Edward Renehan does a great job of shining a light into this dark episode of American history.
- BILY BRAG
Fascinating, surprising, moving, inspiring.
- ARTHUR GOLDWAG, author of THE NEW HATE: A HISTORY OF FEAR AND LOATHING ON THE POPULIST RIGHT

Blacklists. Political witch-hunts. Congressional inquisitions. Loyalty oaths. And one brave banjo-wielding patriot willing to risk prison and professional ruin rather than acquiesce .

Pete was] blacklisted during the McCarthy era and had a hard time, but he never stopped. - BOB DYLAN
I am not going to answer any questions as to my association, my philosophical or religious beliefs or my political beliefs, or how I voted in any election, or any of these private affairs. I think these are very improper questions for any American to be asked . - PETE SEGER, testifying before the House Select Committee on Un-American Activities, August 1955
