Would it be possible to add my book to the list of books on the case? "Rewriting Hisstory: A 50-Year Journey to Uncover the Truth About Alger Hiss" University Press of Kansas, 2025. Jeffkisseloff (talk) 19:50, 16 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

none of my findings worthwhile?

edit

Having spent decades on the case, and turning up considerable new information on it, I'm curious as to why none of my findings were considered worth including in the bio. Jeffkisseloff (talk) 03:50, 22 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Hi Jeff. I have just acquired the book. Very excited to read, and I will update the article accordingly when I have had time to digest your monumental work. Joegoodfriend (talk) 22:27, 25 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
What other historians have read the book and concur with the findings? Gaskew7 (talk) 16:54, 30 September 2025 (UTC)Reply
Peter Irons, Jon Wiener, Paul Buhle, perhaps Kai Bird, but his feelings about it aren't as clear cut, Eric Alterman, D. D. Guttenplan.
The conclusions in the book are all based on my own original research. Harvey Klehr has questioned it but his review was more of an ad hominem attack. The few points he did raise are refuted at rewritinghisstory.com Jeffkisseloff (talk) 23:53, 28 October 2025 (UTC)Reply
