Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I met with Carl, a psychiatrist, to discuss his family. He explained that his wife had called him about an appointment with him. She had been referred by John Simons, a child psychiatrist in town who worked mostly with adolescents. #2 The family was very tense during the session, and it seemed like they were about to fight. But Carl was able to defuse the situation by asking them to wait until Don arrived. #3 The family was having a difficult time deciding whether or not they would have an official meeting. I insisted that it would be unfair to Don and I thought unfair to Mrs. Brice to have him absent when we were discussing the prospect of the family changing. #4 It was clear to us that we needed the whole family to help deal with the anxiety of the situation. But the parents insisted that we were being professionally irresponsible by delaying the appointment.

Book Description
Pulitzer Prize–winning author and “one of our most talented biographers and historians” (The New York Times) David Maraniss delivers a “thoughtful, poignant, and historically valuable story of the Red Scare of the 1950s” (The Wall Street Journal) through the chilling yet affirming story of his family’s ordeal, from blacklisting to vindication. Elliott Maraniss, David’s father, a WWII veteran who had commanded an all-black company in the Pacific, was spied on by the FBI, named as a communist by an informant, called before the House Un-American Activities Committee in 1952, fired from his newspaper job, and blacklisted for five years. Yet he never lost faith in America and emerged on the other side with his family and optimism intact. In a sweeping drama that moves from the Depression and Spanish Civil War to the HUAC hearings and end of the McCarthy era, Maraniss weaves his father’s story through the lives of his inquisitors and defenders as they struggle with the vital 20th-century issues of race, fascism, communism, and first amendment freedoms. “Remarkably balanced, forthright, and unwavering in its search for the truth” (The New York Times), A Good American Family evokes the political dysfunctions of the 1950s while underscoring what it really means to be an American. It is “clear-eyed and empathetic” (Publishers Weekly, starred review) tribute from a brilliant writer to his father and the family he protected in dangerous times.
