The Ten-Cent Plague: The Great Comic-Book Scare and How it Changed America by David Hajdu

5.0

A really smart and well-written look into postwar culture via comics. While the larger narrative of comics' demise might be familiar to some, the hundreds of interviews Hajdu included reframes the story altogether such that it looks at larger tensions in America to define self and place. A great read -- even if you're not into comics.
