===Beyond Carroll===

One of the sharpest criticisms of Odyssey was made in the collection of essays entitled written by John Earl Haynes an Harvey Klehr <i>[https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/159403088X/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=159403088X&linkCode=as2&tag=dailyh0c-20&linkId=8ed06cae78edd741816c6c45c8372b6c In Denial: Historians, Communism & Espionage]</i>. Two of the essays in the collection accused Carroll of scholarly malpractice for suggesting that the term “premature anti-fascists” was used by the government to classify veterans of the Lincoln Brigade pejoratively. John Earl Haynes and Harvey Klehr instead argued that the term was adopted by veterans of the Lincoln Brigade as a badge of honor. Carroll fights back in the Lincoln Brigade newsletter stating that Congressional Representative John Coffee in 1945 indicated in a speech that people in Washington had referred to members of the Lincoln Brigade as “premature anit-fascists.”

In addition to Carroll’s <i>Odyssey</i>, the Lincoln Brigade archives have spawned additional books. <i>[https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0814716601/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=0814716601&linkCode=as2&tag=dailyh0c-20&linkId=786065cef71742ae630f60c3272fec5c The Good Fight Continues:World War II Letters from the Abraham Lincoln Brigade]</i> edited by Peter M.

These letters express a number emotions and feelings. A number of the Brigade members’ were frustrated at being denied combat positions. Still, a number of the veterans did serve in combat and these letters share their experiences. Some of the letters address problems that Brigade members faced in the immediate post-World War II period.
