(R.E. Sheppard Time - R. Sheppard

This passionately supports its subjects' guilt and at the same time dramatically documents the ragged and unsavory way that justice was served. Radosh and Milton disclose an embarrassing trail of legal blundering, intimidation, judicial improprieties and political expedience.

Editorials

Alan M. Dershowitz

Were Julius and Ethel Rosenberg guilty of transmitting American atomic secrets to the Soviet Union in the 1940s, or were they scapegoats of the Cold War whose execution was a grave miscarriage of justice? That both are true is the intriguing argument of Ronald Radosh and Joyce Milton in their definitive account of the controversial case.

Max Lerner

If any book can establish the truth about the whole episode, The Rosenberg File does it. A closely textured and sharply reasoned narrative, it reads like a spy story.
