Philip Dru- Administrator

Edward M. House

Philip Dru Administrator A Story of Tomorrow, 1920-1935 is a captivating political novel published anonymously in 1912 by Edward Mandell House, a notable American diplomat and political strategist. The narrative follows the journey of Dru, who rises to lead the democratic western U.S. in a fierce civil war against the oppressive plutocracy of the East. As he ascends to the role of Americas dictator, Dru enacts a series of reforms echoing the progressive Bull Moose platform of 1912 before mysteriously disappearing. This rich and thought-provoking tale invites readers to explore themes of power, governance, and societal change. (Summary by Wikipedia) This project was proof listened by Barry Eads and TriciaG.
