In God's Country: The Patriot Movement and the Pacific Northwest

Rating:
Summary: A primer of the extreme right, in their own words.
Review: David Neiwert is an extrodinary investigative reporter. His work uncovering the lies of Ted Olson shows the man's work ethic. As others have said, he allows the so called Patriots to speak for themselves. This book is a primer however. It never approaches the rank and file paranoids and racists. It deals well with those who market themselves, looking to draw in more rubes, to their extremist fold. I don't expect David to go into the Aryan Nation camp, or their satellites in the American prison system. For what he did, I congratulate him.

Summary: very readable, expertly researched, interesting and relevant
Review: Don't let the title scare you. This book is not dry. Very interesting; compelling. In fact a great read. We get to know the "patriots" and to understand them and even to empathize with them because we hear their very own words and participate in their very own (usually bizarre) actions. These very real people become very real people. The author's excellent research and personal insights teach us a lot about human nature and about ourselves. And it's scary!

Summary: Accurate
Review: I am one of the Deputies David wrote about in the Chapter titled "Roundup". David wrote an excellent book and I can assure every reader that the information David wrote is true. Every american citizen should read this book. The information will certainly make you take another look at how divided this country really is and how some Americans will do anything to make you see that "their way" is the only way regardless who may suffer their wrath along the way.
