Title: It CAN'T Happen here based on Lewis' intentionally tongue-in-cheek book
Review: I can't recommend this, unless you are someone interested in the 'future' type of books prevalent in the time period (see 'WE' by Zemyatin, for instance). In this case, a Fascist dictatorship is legally elected and chaos ensues. The characters are caricatures (by design) and the heroes likewise -- it ends up being an allegory like "Vanity Fair" or similar.That said, the writing is pretty good, and some of the ideas are interesting. Unfortunately, the Lewis' screed becomes like John Galt's speech at the end of Atlas Shrugged -- boring, repetitive and unrealistic.
