Tree of Liberty Lawrence L. Allen 1st edition

TREE OF LIBERTY: The Complete Trilogy In 1 Book ! The Tree of Liberty is a 3-volume set, 30-year sweeping epic that takes readers on a journey around the world and across the spectrum of the human spirit. Who will lead America?s second revolution against tyranny? Who among us will dare to rise up against the D. C. patricians: America?s dukes, marquis and viscounts who now occupy themselves with vile intrigues and subterfuges?squabbling for dominion over the rights, fortunes and lives of the America people? And taxation without representation is only one injustice impelling the class warfare with America?s ruling class families. Curtiss Bradley is one of those revolutionaries. The only child of a Doolittle Raider, orphaned then weaned at the Milton Hershey School for Orphaned Boys, Curtiss comes of age on Wall Street?s fast track during America?s roaring 1980s. That is until a love obsession with an enchanting Taiwanese NYU student draws Curtiss into the exotic and often bizarre subcultures of Asia. He returns 30 years later to find the America he knew gone, having had a reversal of fortune with China: now fully capitalist and the world?s leading economy and democracy. While in America, the bill comes due for decades of debt-driven economics in the Great Depression of the Twenty Teens, when Americans embrace defunct China-style statism, and in the process lose their most precious inheritance: their freedom. Can Curtiss, by resurrecting the Morgan?s Kentucky Riflemen, launch the shot heard ?round the world in 2020 and rescue America from its post-constitutional dystopia?
