Cassella-Blackburn and Langone provide an account of the ways in which the small group of zealots known as the China Lobby conspired to create a hysterical fear of the threat of Soviet imperialism and the dangers of communism in the minds of the American public and Western leaders. The China Lobby included business leaders, publishers, and members of the United States congress, state department, and military as well as Chinese nationalists. Their work led to a diplomatic black hole, a total failure in diplomacy between the United States and the other Western nations with first the Soviet Union, then China and eventually Korea, Vietnam and even the African nations engaged in decolonization. Their conspiracy was a fight against an insidious enemy that was both outside and inside America.
