The Author

The Book

Andrew McDonald was a pseudonym

The true author is William Luther Pierce

Pierce was a leader of the American Nazi Party

He and his followers later formed the National Alliance

The System The Organization

The small militant group that rebels against the opression and Cohen Act.

The combined government, media, and economy that is under the oppressive regime of left-winged Jewish.

Looking at it philosophically one can't avoid the conclusion that it is corruption, not tyranny, which lead to the overthrow of governments.

The Narrator

Banned

Earl Turner

Bible of racist right

-FBI

He was an engineer who joined the Organization. He wrote in his diary from the first gun raid through the entire rise of the Organization and racial annihilation. His knowledge as an engineer was invaluable in bomb making and other mechanical things.

This book was banned in almost every school system for a long time and was even forbidden to be bought and sold in some European countries, some countries as free as England. It was banned because of the many racial crimes that it's pages stirred. The hateful words were not merely hateful words but also a very effective plan of attack against a government.
