#3 Professor Christopher Andrew is the only historian to date to go through the archive.

Cause today's modern communists apparatchiks, aka progressives, who are awash in academia have no interest to reveal that McCarthy was right (bad tactics and showmanship, but right).

#4 "wanted his files made available to the public" "accessed by visitors on appointment" -- HA! It is most interesting to note, in this digital age, that these critically important exposes of communist methods (many of which will debunk current activities & political positions in the West) have not been digitized and simply made available for anyone,anywhere, to access via the internet.

#5 I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn, a few years from now, that material in these boxes tends to evaporate.

#6 It's not 'evaporation' I'm concerned about, it's the IRS Milwaukee 3/8 inch drill media sorter.

#8 ...Professor Andrew's two books from the Mitrokhin Archive - Sword and Shield and The World Was Going Our Way - are MUST HAVE reads to understand the secret war between us and the USSR.
