Perjury: The Hiss-Chambers Case
"So far as any one book can dispel a large historical mystery, this book does it, magnificently."--Garry Wills,New York Review of Books"Lucidly written, impressively researched, closely argued... The result is formidable."--Irving Howe,New York Times Sunday Book Review "A historic event... Stunningly meticulous, a monument to the intellectual ideal of truth stalked to its hiding place."--George Will,Newsweek"The definitive account."--Reader's Catalog"The most exciting piece of history in recent memory."--William F. Buckley"The most objective and convincing account we have of the most dramatic court case of the century."--Arthur Schlesinger, Jr."[Weinstein] has gone as far as any historian could to establish the formal validity of the verdict... His treatment of the resulting material strikes one as both judicious and properly skeptical; he writes of it with clarity and restraint. ...Weinstein's contribution, then, is major and I would say definitive."--John Kenneth Galbraith"Impressive... [Weinstein] makes persuasive use of this material in a narrative that is lucid, dramatic and even handed."--Robert Kirsch,Los Angeles Times Book Review
