Roseberg scholar
Ronald Radosh is a prominent Rosenberg scholar. His many articles on the Rosenbergs have appeared in The New Republic, National Review, and other prominent national magazines. Radosh co-authored The Rosenberg File with Joyce Milton in 1983, and then released an updated second edition in 1997 containing new evidence that became available following the dissolution of the U.S.S.R. Radosh is convinced that the Rosenbergs and Sobell were guilty as charged, although he also has condemned overzealous prosecution tactics in the case.[1]
