Abstract

V originále

American novelists Sutton Griggs and Thomas Dixon Jr., both writing at the turn of the 20th century, separately imagined -- from "black" and "white" perspectives -- that a secret underground government was operating in the United States. Details and implications of this are explored in this paper.
