From the Inside Flap

"An important book. It brings a new perspective on aspects of the socialist movement that sheds light on some of the reasons for its failure."Seymour Martin Lipset

"Many books add to our fund of historical knowledge. Few recast our historical understanding.Authoritarian Socialism in America is one of those rare books. . . No one will leave this passionately argued book with unshaken faith in the Progressive equation of reform and democracy. Lipow's book is a revelation."David Brody
