Collinsville, Illinois : April 4, 1918, 11:30 p.m -- A small town, a great war -- United we stand : the miners and their union -- You are either for us or against us -- A little tar might help -- I am heart and soul for the good old USA -- I want to tell and get it off my mind -- A farcical patriotic orgy -- It seems a nightmare |
| Summary |
"Peter Stehman resurrects the details of a sinister World War I hate crime perpetrated on American soil against a German immigrant. During a time when America had been whipped into an intolerant patriotic frenzy by government propaganda and hate mongering, this story illuminates a dark past that still bleeds into today"-- Provided by publisher |
