Lillian Hellman and John Melby met in Russia, fell in love, talked often of marriage, and, during their separations over the next thirty years, wrote each other voluminously. This book tells the story of their affair, certainly one of the most intense of Hellman's life. It is also the story of Hellman's role in Melby's seven Loyalty-Security hearings, extending over eighteen months.

A review of major post-World War II American foreign policy decisions made by authorities who were blinded by ideology. It tells us a simple lesson about politics: of all the motivations for political action, none is as lethal as ideology.
