Book Launch - Americans Without Borders: The Radical Activists Who Fought for US Ideals Abroad While Facing Political Persecution at Home

You are warmly invited to celebrate the release of Americans Without Borders: The Radical Activists Who Fought for US Ideals Abroad While Facing Political Persecution at Home on October 6 at Taylor & Co. Books in Brooklyn! Author Julia Harte will be in conversation with Joel Whitney (author of Flights: Radicals on the Run and Finks: How the C.I.A. Tricked the World's Best Writers) for a rousing discussion about this hidden history of Americans who risked their lives for liberation movements around the world — and how the US government targeted them as a result. Called "a powerful and beautifully crafted history" (Reza Aslan); "so intriguing that it’s surprising no one has done a book like this before" (Adam Hochschild); and "a book without equals" (Michael Kazin), Americans Without Borders began as a quest to uncover the truth about a distant relative of the author's who was condemned by J. Edgar Hoover for serving Trotsky in Mexico, but became much more. Please RSVP if you plan to be there, as the bookstore is a very cozy space and there will be limited seating room!
