Summary In 2008 there were 149 militia groups in the United States. In 2009, that number more than tripled to 512. Johnson offers a detailed account of the growth of right-wing extremism and militias in the United States and the ever-increasing threat they pose. He provides case studies and interviews with leaders which reveal their agendas, how they recruit, and how they operate around the country. A comprehensive account of an ever-growing security concern at a time when this threat is only beginning to be realized, and is still largely ignored in many circles.
