The definitive account of the1995 Oklahoma City bombing& the enduring legacy ofTimothy McVeigh, leading to theJanuary 6 insurrection— from acclaimed journalistJeffrey Toobin.Timothy McVeighwanted to start a movement.Speaking to his lawyers days after theOklahoma City bombing, theGulf Warveteran expressed no regrets:killing 168 peoplewas his patriotic duty. He cited theDeclaration of Independencefrom memory: “Whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it.” He had obsessively followed the siege ofWaco& seethed at the imposition ofPresident Bill Clinton’sassault weapons ban. A self-proclaimed white separatist, he abhorred immigration & wanted women to return to traditional roles. As he watched the industrial decline of his nativeBuffalo,McVeighlonged for whenAmericawas great.New York Times bestselling authorJeffrey Toobintraces the dramatic history & profound legacy ofTimothy McVeigh, who once declared, “I believe there is an army out there, ready to rise up, even though I never found it.” But that doesn’t mean his army wasn’t there. With news-breaking reportage,Toobindetails howMcVeigh’sprinciples & tactics have flourished in the decades since his death in 2001, reaching an apotheosis on January 6 when hundreds of rioters stormed theCapitol. Based on nearly a million previously unreleased tapes, photographs, & documents, including detailed communications betweenMcVeigh& his lawyers, as well as interviews with such key figures asBill Clinton,Homegrownreveals how the story ofTimothy McVeigh& theOklahoma City bombingis not only a powerful retelling of one of the great outrages of our time, but a warning for our future.
