For many Americans, the Oklahoma City bombing was the first glimpse into the secret and violent world of the militia movement. But this movement has a long and varied history in the United States and abroad. In The Militia Movement, Ben Sonder traces evolution of militia and analyzes their connection to the larger Patriot movement and extremist right-wing politics and religion.
