Title: School of darkness
Description: Autobiography of Bella V Dodd, recounting her rise in the Communist Party of America from the 1920's to the early 1950's.  She worked tirelessly to advance their goals in the US by infiltrating The Teachers Union, The AFofL and the CIO, which were all heavily loaded with communist officials.  She also served communist interests in the political activities in New York City.  It is a compelling book, detailing her blind loyalty to the Party, falling out of favor with the Party and her eventual conversion to Catholicism.  She had sold her soul to communism and lost herself in the process.  It was a long, hard road but she found her way back to the faith of her childhoo.
