Book excerpt: This is a print on demand edition of a hard to find publication. This review was initiated in response to concerns over whether the FBI had improperly targeted domestic advocacy groups for investigation based solely upon their exercise of First Amendment rights. FBI investigative activity was reviewed relating to five groups and one individual: The Thomas Merton Center of Pittsburgh, PA; The Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA); Greenpeace USA; The Catholic Worker Movement; Greenpeace and The Catholic Worker at Vandenburg Air Force Base; and Glen Milner (a ¿Quaker¿ or Religious Society of Friends peace activist).
