About This Item
A young American patriot, Harold J. Wusterbarth, wrote a 5 page, 1166 word collegiate essay on the interwar period of the early 20th century, specifically to do with the prevailing dictatorships in USSR, Germany, and Italy.
Wusterbarth's derisive essay accentuates the relinquishment of personal liberties by way of authoritarian dictatorship. He does not wish to see the Nazi-regime or any other like it to spread in the democratic state of America, as his closing remarks reflect: "The sooner America awakens to the fact that totalitarian state can be established here, as they have been set up in Europe, the longer America will remain as our forefathers visualized it: a nation of strength and unity, a land of opportunity, a country free from the despotic rule of autocracy, a virtual "Land of the free and home of the brave".
This typeset essay has been marked in pencil by Wusterbarth's teacher. Phrases are underlined, others are circles, and light marginalia is provided. Wurtherbarth received an A+ on this assignment.
