At eight minutes past two o'clock on the morning of Sunday, July 30, 1916, a thundering explosion at the Black Tom munitions depot sent sleeping residents of New York City and surrounding areas tumbling from their beds. In one terrifying, ear-splitting moment, the Great War then raging overseas had come to America. In Sabotage at Black Tom, Jules Witcover draws on his skills as an investigative reporter to tell about one of the most fascinating and little-known episodes of World War I: how the Kaiser's agents -- with the help of interned German sailors, Irish recruits bitter toward the British, and German-American sympathizers -- schemed to stop the flow of American armaments to the Allies. - Jacket flap.
