Jarrod Showalter's Reviews > A Conspiracy So Immense: The World of Joe McCarthy

500+ pages but very little analysis. Has many of the negative characteristics of biographies- lots of facts but with little connection. A couple chapters provide some context to wider history but feel out of place and irrelevant to Oshinsky's narrative. The facts in the story ask a lot of questions that Oshinsky does not answer. Very very detailed at times but somehow still leaves some important aspects of any American's life out.
