In this fast-moving expose of the criminogenic tide coming from our ‘servants’ in Washington, D.C., Professor DiLorenzo continues his iconoclastic tradition begun with his two blockbuster books about Dishonest Abe Lincoln, and about Alex Hamilton — the founding father not of America, but of the Wall Street crime machine.
I think the natural order of reading DiLorenzo blockbusters should be: 1) Hamilton’s Curse: How Jefferson’s Arch Enemy Betrayed the American Revolution–and What It Means for Americans Today 2) Lincoln Unmasked: What You’re Not Supposed to Know About Dishonest Abe, 3) then this great compendium of D.C. crimes. Then, you can take Tom’s other delightful books in any order you like. He hasn’t had a dud yet.
Tom DiLorenzo is an American statesman and thinker in the Old Right tradition of Albert Jay Nock, John T. Flynn, Garet Garrett, Frank Chodorov, Felix Morley, and Murray Rothbard. There are very few like him today — Ron Paul, Tom Woods, Kevin Gutzman, and Judge Andrew Napolitano are others — but Tom DiLorenzo has gone straight for the enemy’s boiler-room and planted shaped charges there…documenting his work as he covers a great deal of ground.

Every lover of the U.S. Constitution and of the republic given birth in that Supreme Law, should give thanks to God for this great author. Mr. DiLorenzo has been an inspiration and a teacher to so many Americans over the past decade, including me. When I see a new DiLorenzo work out, without hesitation I buy it and download it to my Kindle Fire — before even glossing it. I’m that certain in the DiLorenzo “brand” — his scholarship. With his books, I know I’ll be instructed and edified…and “Organized Crime” is no exception.
Among many new pieces of grist for the mill, I found a fascinating factoid here: George Washington signed the bill creating the first Bank of the U.S., as the result of a backroom deal, wherein the survey perimeter of the new District of Columbia would be moved to join Washington’s family estate at Mount Vernon. Having been a surveyor many years before, I’m sure old George could give them the required metes and bounds, right off the bat. I’ve been a lifelong student of American history, but this was a new gem for me. Thanks, Tom.
