Deadly Farce
Harvey Matusow, a celebrity informant for the government during the McCarthy Era, retracted his testimony in 1955, leading to the dissolution of the Justice Department's stable of paid informers. This book draws on FBI records, court transcripts, papers, and other sources to describe the role of Matusow and other ex-Communist informer-witnesses.
