Reds: The Tragedy of American Communism: by Israeli-born Jew, Maurice Isserman. (Hardback)

This book, published in 2024, comprises a main body of 315 pages, supplemented by an additional 60 pages of notes and an index. It explores the lineage of anti-capitalist activists in the United States, including contemporary figures such as Zoran Mamdani—recent winner of the Democratic Party’s primary election for New York City mayor. Despite the author’s acknowledged bias, the book offers expert insight into the history of the Communist Party USA, founded in 1919, and examines the often-misunderstood legacy and lessons of its most radical and controversial members.
