Books by Jeff Broadwater

George Mason (1725-92) is often omitted from the small circle of founding fathers that are celebrated, but, in his service to America he was, in the words of Thomas Jefferson, ""of the first order of greatness."" This book provides a comprehensive account of Mason's life at the center of the momentous events of eighteenth-century America.

Provides a comprehensive survey of the Eisenhower administration's response to America's postwar Red Scare. Exploring the complex relationship between partisan politics and cold war tensions, Jeff Broadwater demonstrates that virulent anticommunism, as well as opposition to it, often cut across party and ideological lines.
