Publisher's Note
In 1947, the House Un-American Activities Committee rudely interrupted the successful career and life of Edward Dmytryk, citing him with contempt of Congress. As a result, Dmytryk was fired by RKO and spent three years in England before returning to the United States to serve a six-month jail sentence and undergo a second round of hearings, during which he recanted and provided evidence against several of his former colleagues.

Industry Reviews
"Step by step, Dmytryk takes us through his incarceration in a federal prison where, he says, 'two months of undisturbed thinking showed me the light....' The Communist Party, he said, had used the Hollywood 10 as propaganda, and '[If] I were going to be a martyr, I wanted the privilege of choosing my martyrdom....'"
Los Angeles Times Book Review - Mollie Gregory (11/03/1996)
