Beskrivelse af Philip Dru
Philip Dru: Administrator is a political novel written by Edward Mandell House, an American diplomat and advisor to President Woodrow Wilson. The book was first published in 1912 and is set in the early 1900s. The story follows the life of Philip Dru, a young army officer who becomes disillusioned with the corrupt political system in the United States. He resigns from the army and decides to take matters into his own hands by leading a revolution to overthrow the existing government and establish a new, more democratic system.Dru's revolution is successful, and he becomes the administrator of the new government. He implements a series of reforms to improve the lives of the people, including the nationalization of industries, the establishment of a national bank, and the creation of a new constitution.However, Dru's administration is not without its challenges. He faces opposition from powerful business interests, as well as from other countries who are threatened by his vision of a more democratic world order.The book is often seen as a political manifesto, advocating for progressive reforms and a more democratic system of government. It is also notable for its portrayal of a utopian society, where everyone is equal and has access to the resources they need to thrive.Overall, Philip Dru: Administrator is a thought-provoking and influential work of political fiction that continues to be studied and debated to this day.First published (anonymously) in 1912, this novel describes for the overthrow of the U.S. government in favor of a socialist regime. House was an advisor to Presdient Wilson.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
