About this listen

This is a summary and analysis of It Can't Happen Here and not the original book.

With news of the dictatorship Adolph Hitler is building in Germany and the fascist regime taking root in Italy, Lewis Sinclair attacks the basic American precept that something of that magnitude cannot happen here.

As the election of the century heats up, it becomes apparent to Doremus Jessup that Senator Berzelius Windrip was well on his way to defeating incumbent President Franklin D. Roosevelt and the entire Republican Party.

Upon his election, Windrip begins doing the unthinkable as he disbands the states and does away with all political parties except a new one entitled Corporate America Party.

As Windrip gains more and more power, a noble fight takes place as Doremus Jessup and others in the New Underground go to war to fight despotism.
