For Race And Nation: George Lincoln Rockwell & the American Nazi Party

On August 25, 1967, George Lincoln Rockwell, founder of the American Nazi Party, lay murdered in a parking lot in Arlington, Virginia. Three decades would pass before the story of Rockwell's life and that fateful day was told. In this vivid, thoroughly researched biography, William Schmaltz interviewed former members, requested 15,000 pages of documents from the FBI, and dozens of audio tapes, to piece together the history and inner-workings of Rockwell's American Nazi Party. From their Headquarters in Virginia, Rockwell sent his Stormtroopers into Washington for picketing, demonstrations, and agitation against Civil Rights leaders, Jews, Blacks, homosexuals, and Communists. His goal was to capitalize on the decaying social order in hopes of gaining political power in the same manner as his hero, Adolf Hitler. Along the way, he invented Holocaust Denial, forged alliances with Black Muslims, ran for Governor of Virginia, and became the hottest ticket on the college speaking tour.
