Fueled partially by Nazi Germany's financing of propaganda, thousands of New Yorkers embraced the ideals of an American Reich through retreats such as Yaphank's Camp Siegfried, which groomed Nazi sympathizers to be ready for the fascist overthrow of the American republic. In opposition to Nazism, multiple local citizen groups fought to combat the Bund's organized efforts to undermine America. Author Christopher Verga brings to life the often-overlooked history of New York's World War II era through a story of Nazi sedition, espionage and citizen resistance to preserve the American republic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher C.
