Description: "The Kravchenko Case is the story of a Soviet defector in 1944 who waged a one-man war against Stalin's dictatorship. Kravchenko was a Cold War warrior, but he denounced Joseph McCarthy and his methods." "Author Gary Kern gained access to the private, unpublished papers of Victor Kravchenko never before available to researchers and historians, as well as hundreds of FBI documents won in a six-year Freedom of Information Act Lawsuit, and conducted interviews with the defectors sons and associates."--BOOK JACKET.
