Synopsis
Most people will be shocked to learn that in 1933 a cabal of wealthy industrialists-- in league with groups like the K.K.K. and the American Liberty League-- planned to overthrow the U.S. government in a fascist coup. Their plan was to turn discontented veterans into American " brown shirts, " depose F.D.R., and stop the New Deal. They clandestinely asked Medal of Honor recipient and Marine Major General Smedley Darlington Butler to become the first American Caesar. He, though, was a true patriot and revealed the plot to journalists and to Congress. In a time when a sitting President has invoked national security to circumvent constitutional checks and balances, this episode puts the spotlight on attacks upon our democracy and the individual courage needed to repel them., "The long-forgotten story of what would have been America's first serious armed insurrection since the Revolution."

    The book was exactly as described and arrived quickly. The only problem is a recurring one with this seller and other similar sellers - the book is poorly packaged in a plastic envelope and gets heavily bumped in shipping. I would like to see the books wrapped before shipment, but I understand this can't be done for cost reason. Luckily it isn't an expensive book, and I will continue to purchase basic books from this seller. A+++++
