The Nature of your Enemy

During the Cold War, America was bent on portraying the Eastern Bloc as a grim, mysterious anti-hero that would forever destroy the American Way of Life. It was the duty of every American citizen to fight, despise or otherwise take a stand against it.

Here's a leading magazine offering a book about the dangers of Communism  -including the techniques and goals of "the world's Number One Communist", Nikita Khrushchev -the Soviet Premier of the time.

Should be entertaining reading today, when the Soviet Union is no more and the U.S. is on the brink of implosion.

"Communism", 1962

The old maxim stands firm: in the editorial world, fear sells.
