About The Book

Henry Wallace was, next to FDR, the pre-eminent figure of the 1940’s, universally regarded as Roosevelt’s heir to the New Deal wing of the Democratic Party, a major Cabinet figure under bot Roosevelt and Truman. But in 1948 he quit the Cabinet and ran for the presidency on the independent ticket of the Progressive Party, challenging Truman on a number of issues; indeed September and October 1948 saw the last public debate on the basic assumptions of American foreign policy until the late 1960’s.

In this fascinating study of that campaign — of Henry Wallace, Harry Truman, and their debate of the origins of the Cold War — Richard Walton does more than throw light on a crucial turning point in American history. He gives us a detailed and in many ways surprising account of how Wallace developed his critique of administration policies and his proposals for new ones, and he also considers the response made to Wallace by the administration, the press, and anti-Wallace liberals. Why did Wallace lose so badly? Mr. Walton offers some important evidence as to our single-minded anti-Communism which already in 1948 had been a motivating force of our foreign policy for too long.
