Inside the Shadow Government
Currently Out of Stock
What would have happened on September 11, 2001 if the first two hijacked airplanes had instead crashed into the White House and the U.S. Capitol, killing the President, Vice President, and almost all members of Congress?
The Shadow Government would have taken control of the U.S. government.
A paranoid fantasy, right?
Wrong. The Shadow Government is in fact, one of the most closely-held secrets of the U.S. government. Originally created to keep the federal government functioning in case of a surprise Soviet nuclear attack, the Shadow Government has mutated into an ominous threat to American civil liberties and democratic government.
“…(S)hould give pause to anyone interested in promoting democracy and civil liberties… The book is well documented… recommended for all libraries. It is essential reading for all civil libertarians.”

“Far from being the mad ramblings of a conspiracy theorist, INSIDE THE SHADOW GOVERNMENT is a careful, concise documentation of the dangers inherent in the U.S. having a secret government with unlimited, unspecified power, whose full scope and details of action and spending is hidden even from key members of Congress for ‘security purposes’…a sobering, educational, and eye-opening read.”
— Slug Magazine
“…A work that is shocking in a quieter, yet even more disturbing way… This is a work of history, not wild speculation, for facts, after all, are more shocking, and frightening, than fiction. (A) coherent narrative, with both the possibilities and the balanced truths laid out… Harry Helms, an electronics expert who has published widely on both civilian and covert radio, comes across neither as a conspiracy theorist nor as a militia member holed up inside a Montana bunker, but as a serious thinker who has done his homework.”

“Harry Helms’ book is a tremendous resource work that will have enormous appeal both to clandestine DXers and the general public…He meticulously outlines the procedures by which the government could morph into a dictatorship, where civilians could be rounded up and detained while normal constitutional protections could be suspended by executive orders… (and) reveals the location of many secret facilities operated by the government, originally designed for the operation of the government in the event of a nuclear attack….This book is now essential reading for everybody in the United States… You should go buy one at once, while you still have the chance.”

The Washington Post has reported that a parallel “shadow government” was activated in response to the September 11th attacks. Inside the Shadow Government is the first in-depth exploration of these standby plans. Among its revelations are details of plans for arrest – without probable cause or warrant – of American citizens by presidential order and government control of all media outlets. Special attention is given to the rise of “executive orders,” a device that lets a president bypass Congress to create new laws. This book makes a powerful case that the “shadow government” is more concerned with restricting American civil liberties and constitutional government than it is with fighting international terrorism. Included are photos, illustrations, maps, charts and appendices that contain the complete text of government and military documents outlining plans for implementing the shadow government in future emergencies.
