Dedicated Group Interest Public

This rare grass-roots account of American communism traces the rise and fall of Maryland's Communist Party from the time of the Russian Revolution to the McCarthy era. Drawing on sources including the central archives of the Communist Party of the United States of America, recovered from remote storage in Siberia in 1993, Vernon L. Pedersen presents a sharp challenge to revisionist views of American communism as a benign domestic movement detached from Soviet interests. Bolsheviks in Baltimore charts the uneven transformation of Baltimore's fledgling Communists into underground revolutionaries in the 1920s. Pedersen documents the mercurial careers of local organizers, their devotion to the Soviet cause, and their efforts to convert the Party from a hodgepodge of ethnic groups to an effective instrument of class interests. He also tracks the public's changing perception of the Communists, from amused unconcern to alarm, and details how the Ober antisubversive law and the HUAC hearings of the 1950s dismantled the Party from without while planting seeds of paranoia that destroyed it from within. Behind the public fear of a Communist conspiracy against the U.S. government, Pedersen finds a party fractured by conflicting agendas and unstable membership. However, he also uncovers new evidence that Communists in the United States, acting on Soviet orders, used their influence in unions and front groups to sway American foreign policy in ways that benefited the Soviet Union. Paying tribute to the fervor and the effort dedicated by the Maryland Communists, often at the expense of their own physical and financial well-being, to a cause that ultimately failed them, Bolsheviks in Baltimoreassesses an ambiguous legacy of admirable social vision, haphazard international conspiracy, and fierce internal conflict.

Because the Anglican Church has long understood the value of taking time apart from the routine of life, established religious communities have generously offered their facilities as places of respite for individuals and groups. Designed as a resource for clergy and laity who are looking for retreat facilities and for all those interested in the religious life, the Year Book provides a detailed directory of Anglican religious communities all over the world. Included in each entry are location, telephone and fax numbers, e-mail address, a history and description of the facility, service schedules, accommodations, special programs offered, names of community publications, and a variety of other information. The Year Book, with a foreword written by The Most Rev. Frank T. Griswold, Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, also offers a selection of articles on religious life. Indexes of the communities by dedication or patron saint, by geographical location, and by initials, in addition to a helpful glossary, serve to make this guide extremely easy to use.
