SUBVERSIVES: The FBI’s WAR on STUDENT RADICALS and REAGAN’S RISE TO POWER, by Seth Rosenfeld

I am reading SUBVERSIVES, the book it took Mr. Rosenfeld over 30 years to research and write. He recently won the 2013 PEN Literary Award for Research Nonfiction. As a member of PEN, I attended the ceremony that honored Mr. Rosenfeld along with all the other PEN Literary Award winners. I listened to him speak and afterward his was the first book I chose to read out of the “winners’ book bag” (the “book bag” being another story altogether). Mr. Rosenfeld’s book is proving to be an excellent first choice. Through his determination and dogged research he is illuminating one of the most tumultuous and important times in the history of the United States. I cannot put it down.
