American Midnight

The Great War, a Violent Peace, and Democracy's Forgotten Crisis

Adam Hochschild

Discover the tumultuous period of American history during and after World War I, when bloodshed and repression on the home front almost doomed democracy. Through the stories of a diverse cast of characters, including Woodrow Wilson, J. Edgar Hoover, and labor radical Leo Wendell, award-winning historian Adam Hochschild exposes the torture, censorship, and killings that plagued America from 1917 to 1921. American Midnight is a groundbreaking work of narrative history that reveals the poisons of racism, nativism, and contempt for the rule of law that still exist today.

This book is a chilling reminder of how history echoes, and in times of change like these, fear & hate are powerful political forces.      fuente
