Young J. Edgar pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
On June 2, 1919, bombs exploded simultaneously in nine American cities, and the nation suddenly found itself facing a new threat--radical terrorism. Then-Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer vowed a crackdown to be led by his youngest assistant, J. Edgar Hoover. Under Palmer's wing, Hoover helped execute a series of brutal nationwide raids--bursting into homes without warrants, arresting over ten thousand Americans--and assembled secret files on thousands of political enemies. Despite public backlash against the abuses, these were the first steps in Hoover's remarkable rise to power. Young J. Edgar is the "compelling" ( PUBLISHERS WEEKLY ) and "fast-paced" ( KIRKUS REVIEWS ) story of Hoover's early career--one that reaches to the heart of our modern debate over personal freedom in a time of war and fear.
