BOOK 2 MOVIE

Sinclair Lewis – It Can't Happen Here (1935) "The Vermont doctor, successful and respected, is with friends, listening to the radio as Senator Buzz Windrip is nominated by the Democratic Party to become President of the United States. Windrip is a shoo-in in the 1936 election, and some of the friends around that radio fear that, given his proposals and the sorts of people he has gathered around himself, Windrip will become an American dictator. Bosh, the doctor says... Yet, it does. And the doctor is one of the first to be marched out behind the courthouse and summarily executed by a firing squad."     ~ PatrickReardon.com and KOBO.com
