Nicholas Strasser examines how a pro-Nazi organization was able to gain support and publicity following the onset of the Great Depression and leading up to American involvement in World War II. He specifically analyzes the German American Bund and its activities including Hitler Youth style camps in New York and a rally which took place in Madison Square Garden, where roughly 20,000 supporters were in attendance. He also emphasizes its leader Fritz Kuhn, and the ties that the organization had with the government of Nazi Germany in aiding the foreign political organization within America.
