McCarthy Carved to Taste

Gillmor, Dan | December 25, 1954 issue

The article discusses books and authors. "Joe Must Go," by Leroy Gore, is pure and simple, the account of the Wisconsin movement to recall the state's noisy junior Senator. Although more than 400,000 angry signatures were obtained, the number of legal petitioners fell short by some tens of thousands of the number required within a sixty-day period. The story of the first effort is told light-heartedly but interestingly. The Sauk City editor is untroubled by either the complexities of party politics or the demands of scholarship.
