The book is set in the United States during World War I and follows the story of Peter Gudge, a young man who becomes a fervent supporter of the war effort and a zealous patriot. As the war progresses, Peter's patriotism becomes increasingly extreme and he becomes a vocal advocate for the suppression of dissent and the persecution of those who oppose the war. He joins a group of vigilantes who terrorize anti-war activists and immigrants, and he becomes involved in a plot to assassinate a prominent anti-war leader.However, as the war comes to an end and Peter's actions have devastating consequences, he begins to question the morality of his beliefs and actions. He is forced to confront the reality of the war and the propaganda that led him to become a blind supporter of the government's policies.Sadan Prosentin Patriootti is a powerful critique of the dangers of blind patriotism and the manipulation of public opinion during times of war. It is a thought-provoking and challenging work that remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
