J. Allen Broyles

4.9/5 (10118 ratings)

Description:From Pasadena, to Wichita, to Gloucester, Mass., J. Allen Broyles —sociologist and minister—sought out and talked to the deeply committed, often irate members of the John Birch Society. He met their leaders, attended their meetings, visited their headquarters, and read assiduously their growing list of ultraconservative literature. Here is a thoroughly documented, unsettling analysis of America's richest, most cohesive segment of the far right.Since its inception in 1958, the John Birch Society has spread and established itself in towns and cities across the nation. Shooting (according to official statement) for a million members, it appeals to people from every class and vocation and is tightly and effectively organized. It sponsors reading rooms, seminars, lectures, and two monthly journals. Above all, it claims a mission.Underlying all Birch Society activity, says Dr. Broyles, is a fundamental hum founded in the deep and persistent fear that America is doomed before the rising tide of Communist subversion. Communists are in our government, our schools, and our churches. They are pledged to world domination, and America will prevail only if she returns to "simple" economic, political, and religious beliefs of the past. In this study, the author seeks not only to describe the Society and its activities, but to probe the complex factors which have led to its growth and success. Here is a comprehensive and informative account of its history, tenets, attitudes, and goals.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
