Dupes

In this startling, intensively researched book, bestselling historian Paul Kengor shines light on a deeply troubling aspect of American history: the prominent role of the dupe. From the Bolshevik Revolution through the Cold War and right up to the present, many progressives have unwittingly aided some of Americas most dangerous opponents. Based on never-before-published FBI files, Soviet archives, and other primary sources, Dupes exposes the legions of liberals who have furthered the objectives of Americas adversaries. Kengor shows not only how such dupes contributed to historys most destructive ideologyCommunism, which claimed at least 100 million livesbut also why they are so relevant to todays politics.
