The Day Wall Street Exploded: A Story of America in Its First Age of Terror Audiobook (Free)

In YOUR DAY Wall Street Exploded, Beverly Gage tells the storyplot of the once infamous but now largely forgotten terrorist attack. Predicated on thousands of webpages of Bureau of Investigation reports, this historic detective saga traces the four-year search for the perpetrators, an internationally effort that spread as far as Italy and the new Soviet nation. In addition, it takes listeners back into the decades-long but little-known history of homegrown terrorism that designed American society a century ago.

The book about YOUR DAY Wall Road Exploded: A Story of America in Its First Age of Terror delves in to the lives of victims, suspects, and investigators: world banking power J. P. Morgan, Jr.; labor radical ‘Big Costs’ Haywood; anarchist firebrands Emma Goldman and Luigi Galleani; ‘America’s Sherlock Holmes,’ William J. Uses up; even a young J. Edgar Hoover. It grapples as well with a few of the most controversial occasions of its time, like the rise of the Bureau of Investigation, the federal advertising campaign against immigrant ‘terrorists,’ the grassroots effort to define and protect civil liberties, as well as the establishment of anti-communism as the sine qua non of American politics.

Many Americans saw the destruction of the World Trade Middle as the initial major terrorist attack on American soil, an act of wicked without precedent. YOUR DAY Wall Road Exploded reminds us that terror, as well, has a history.
