God's Red Poet: The Life of Kenneth Leslie (2008)

Born in Pictou, Nova Scotia in 1892, Christian socialist Kenneth Leslie attended Dalhousie University as a 14-year-old child prodigy, then went on to study philosophy and theology in the States during the late 1930s. That’s when the award-winning poet, disturbed by American pro-fascist and anti-Semitic sentiment, launched the progressive Protestant Digest; his socialist politics during the unforgiving Cold War era eventually landed him in Life magazine’s top 50 Communists, along with Arthur Miller and Albert Einstein.
