Such was the case with the author of this book. It was only because he set out to prove the conservative anti-Communists wrong that he happened to end up writing this book. His initial reaction to the conservative point of view was one of suspicion and hostility; and it was only after many months of intensive research that he had to admit that he had been "conned."
Gary Allen, a conservative author who was a John Birch Society member and a speech writer for third-party segregationist George Wallace, was somehow not sold on anti-communism until he did some “research”?
