Tobacco, Trusts, And Trump : How America's Forgotten War Created Big Government

If you don't know about the Tobacco Wars, you don't know American history.Imagine a lawless militia of 10,000 masked men roaming the cities and countrysides of the U.S. Brandishing firearms, these Night Riders set fire to warehouses and barns, destroyed millions of dollars of product, and tore businessmen from their homes to torture them-their revenge against an apathetic One Percent who profited off the misery of the working class. This is not a scene from an apocalyptic movie. It's a fact of U.S. history.In Tobacco, Trusts, and Trump: How America's Forgotten War Created Big Government, Jim Rumford reveals how the United States is headed toward the same turmoil that sparked a bloody war between the working class and the Great Tobacco Trust-and why the Establishment doesn't want you to know about it.
