Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Small quarto orange and brown glossy illus baords; ix, 197 pages ; 24 cm; bibliographical references (pages 179-192) and index. "In this manuscript, Douglas M. Charles reveals how FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover catered to President Franklin D. Roosevelt's political interests. Between 1939 and 1945, the Federal Bureau of Investigation monitored the political activities of President Roosevelt's anti-interventionist foreign policy critics. Hoover, whose position as FBI director was tenuous within the left-of-center Roosevelt administration, catered to the president's political and policy interests in order to preserve his position and to expand FBI authority. In his pragmatic effort to service administration political goals, Hoover employed illegal wiretaps and informers, collected derogatory information, conducted investigations that had the potential to discredit the anti-interventionists, forwarded political intelligence to administration officials, and coordinated some activity with British intelligence. This all occurred within a crisis atmosphere created with the onset of the Second World War, and it was this political dynamic that permitted Hoover to successfully cultivate his relationship with President Roosevelt. In the process, the administration's otherwise legitimate foreign policy opposition - regarded by some as subversive - had their civil liberties violated through intensive FBI scrutiny of their political dissent. Moreover, the FBI's surveillance marks the origins of the FBI's role in the later national security state. Among the targets examined in this book are Charles Lindbergh, the America First Committee, notable anti-interventionist senators and congressmen, the anti-interventionist press, and other prominent individuals who advocated American isolation from foreign war."â " Publisher. / Contents: Introduction -- Background -- Beginnings : war, phony war, and election, 1939-40 -- Intensification : the lend-lease debate, America First, and its allies, December 1940 to summer 1941 -- Focus : from great debate stalemate to wartime probe, mid-1941 to summer 1942 -- Retribution : the FBI and the Victory Program leak, 4 December 1941 to mid-1942 -- Blossoming of the domestic security state, November 1941 to March 1942 -- Conclusion. / World War, 1939-1945 -- United States.
