About this book
The Fall of a Nation is a 1916 novel by Thomas Dixon Jr. (1864-1946), an invasion-scare story written during the American preparedness debate of the First World War. The novel imagines a European invasion and conquest of an unprepared United States, followed by an American resistance movement that wins the country back. Dixon wrote the book as a sequel of sorts to the film The Birth of a Nation and simultaneously directed a film version, making The Fall of a Nation the first feature film sequel in American cinema history, with a score by Victor Herbert. The book belongs to the preparedness propaganda literature that pushed the United States toward military expansion before its 1917 entry into the war.
