Thanks for sharing that book! The premise is intriguing and I’m picking up a copy soon. I love Montana but had no idea about the prevalence of communism there.

not to give the game away but in that corner of the state it's genuinely down to a handful of personalities that came and went, and it's very interesting to see the circumstances that allowed them to have such an influence in the area.
