A Very important and little known piece of American History! The older version of the book is out of copyright and available HERE in pdf. A new version was recently reprinted, which the CIA attempted to buy up EVERY copy......but didn't succeed. Luckily, neither did the fascist coup [however those who paid for it to occur had very little done to them in terms of legal action of even public embarrassment and lived on, some to play a role in other coup attempts, assassinations, wars, covert operations etc. You won't find any of this in American History textbooks!
"Major General Smedley D. Butler revealed today that he has been asked by a group of wealthy New York brokers to lead a Fascist movement to set up a dictatorship in the United States."
The American Liberty League, which had brokerage head Grayson
M.-P. Murphy as its treasurer and Robert S. Clark as one of its financiers,
also had John W. Davis, alleged writer of the gold-standard speech for
Clark, as a member of the National Executive Committee. Its contributors
included representatives of the Morgan, Du Pont, Rockefeller, Pew, and
Mellon interests. Directors of the League included A1 Smith and John J.
Raskob. League later formed affiliations with pro-Fascist, antilabor, and
anti-Semitic organizations.
