Levitas proffers a comprehensive look at far-right movements in the United States, tracking their ideological roots back to the Middle Ages. In addition to detailing the histories of hate groups such as the KKK and White Citizens' Council, Levitas pays significant attention to the surging numbers of paramilitary antigovernment militias since the 1960s.
