FIREBRAND tracks the life of radical Ludwig Lore, a pacifist and socialist who emigrated to America at a young age to escape the straitjacket of German politics during the first years of the 20th century and began a new life as a newspaper editor and political commentator. A close associate of Leon Trotsky, Lore was instrumental in the formation of the American Communist Party until 1925, when his stubborn opposition to Stalin’s dictates led to his banishment from the party leadership. During the 1930s, he mentored other breakaway communists – including Whittaker Chambers – while building a reputation as a fierce critic of Hitler.
