Book description
Them: Adventures with Extremists is a romp into the heart of darkness
involving 12-foot lizard-men, PR-conscious Ku Klux Klansmen, Ian
Paisley, Hollywood limousines, the legend of Ruby Ridge, Noam Chomsky, a
harem of kidnapped sex slaves, David Icke, and Nicolae Ceausescu's
shoes. While Jon Ronson attemps to locate the secret room, he is chased
by men in dark glasses, unmasked as a Jew in the middle of a Jihad
training camp, and witnesses CEOs and leading politicians undertake a
bizarre pagan owl ritual in the forests of Northern California. He also
learns some alarming things about the looking-glass world of them and
us. Are the extremists right? Or has he become one of Them? This is a
fascinating investigation into extremists of every stripe. 'A funny and
compulsively readable picaresque adventure through a paranoid shadow
world' Louis Theroux, Guardian 'Very entertaining and very frightening'
