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. Free PDF download available on BDeBooks.
