Someone Is Out to Get Us

A Not So Brief History of Cold War Paranoia and Madness

Beschreibung

From UFOs to Dr. Strangelove, LSD experiments to Richard Nixon, Brown investigates the paranoid, panicked history of the Cold War. This is the true and complete account of a long-misunderstood period of history during which lies, conspiracies, and paranoia led Americans into a state of madness and misunderstanding, too distracted by fictions to realize that the real enemy was looking back at them in the mirror the whole time.
