This book demonstrates how to successfully rebel against and overturn such a government, by building an underground organization of like-minded individuals capable of exercising the full spectrum of resistance - from winning hearts and minds to waging open armed insurrection and guerrilla warfare.

"There is another type of warfare-new in its intensity, ancient in its origin-war by guerrillas, subversives, insurgents, assassins; war by ambush instead of by combat, by infiltration instead of aggression, seeking victory by eroding and exhausting the enemy instead of engaging him. It preys on unrest."President John F. Kennedy, 1962 DESTROY TYRANNY, BUILD JUSTICE & LIBERTY!
