Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Plot Against Mexico This is a fighting book. Its purpose is to expose and defeat the effort of a handful of plutocratic Americans to involve the United States in war with Mexico under pretext of an intervention, in order that our neighbour to the south may be permanently occupied, and that they may be free to exploit the enormous natural wealth of the Mexicans in petroleum, minerals and agricultural lands, to their own exclusive advantage. In the hope of preventing publication of the series of articles in The Nation from which the book takes its title, a lawyer and the chief press agent of the interventionists represented to the editor of that journal that "The Plot Against Mexico" had no existence in fact, being the product of the overheated imagination of a gentleman whose artistic temperament dimmed his appreciation of facts. They meant me, but they really hit the President of the United States. I did not discover or invent a Plot Against Mexico. If any one invented it, the honour must be ascribed to Woodrow Wilson.
