No Customer Reviews
Foreign intervention in American politics... bitter disagreement over the role of government in the nation's affairs... economic uncertainty... public discord. Sound familiar? Although they might be torn from today's headlines, Nate Braden proves that the more things change, the more they stay the same.State of Emergency takes us back to the dark days of 1934. With the Depression in its fifth year, patience with the American system of government is wearing thin. Plots to overthrow President Franklin D. Roosevelt are everywhere. Some are comical. Others are deadly serious.With his trademark eye for detail and mastery of historic context, Nate Braden explores the darker side of Depression-era politics. From homegrown Nazis to the real thing in Germany, State of Emergency introduces us to a cast of characters so bizarre - and dangerous - that you'll wonder how America has survived this long.Yet every story has heroes as well as villains, and this one is no different. In these pages traitors and patriots do battle to make history and change the future. How it all ended was never a foregone conclusion, proving the truth of Thomas Jefferson's immortal words: the price of liberty is eternal vigilance.
