“Absorbing.” —THE NEW YORKER, BEST BOOKS OF 2026

A searing, provocative investigation into the rise of white nationalist and neo-Nazi movements in the United States, centered on the anti-fascist groups working to expose and stop these hateful factions.

Demonized as “extremist” by conservatives and liberals alike, “antifa” became a bogeyman during Donald Trump’s first term. But few Americans understood the dangerous work antifa was doing to disrupt and unmask a new generation of white supremacists or listened when antifa sounded the alarm about these white supremacists taking positions of power. Now this underground network of militant anti-fascists is determined to stop the rising tide of fascism in America. No matter the cost.

In the tradition of in-the-room investigative classics such as The Smartest Guys in the Room and Bad Blood, To Catch a Fascist follows different factions of antifascists as they work to unmask hateful extremists before they commit devastating acts of violence. With searing detail and exclusive reporting, To Catch a Fascist paints a vivid picture of the stakes in this ongoing, often unseen war between opposite ends of the political spectrum, highlighting the scrappy resourcefulness and resilience of anti-fascist movements against their increasingly violent adversaries. Utilizing razor-sharp storytelling and eye-opening insight, this timely and necessary book reveals the human cost, moral dilemmas, and unwavering determination involved in fighting white supremacy.

Both a call to action and a pulse-raising look at the powerful work being done to combat today’s gravest threat to democracy, To Catch a Fascist will inspire you to fight for your community. Americas Fascism Ideologies & Doctrines Politics & Government United States Social justice

The stories of real antifascists in the US are very engaging! The author explains that dedicated & trained anti-fascists take care to do the job with limits and care. They approach their functions with a strong sense of justice and they share their talents to advance our pluralistic, democratic ideals. I really liked seeing our society through their eyes. The book made me feel hopeful. And the passage near the end about Red Beard...omg. I won't spoil it, but...what an eye-opener.

Interesting, suspenseful and informative

Full of information every American should hear, thank you for this terrific book. The amount of time and research that was put into all of the doxes and contemplation before releasing them really stood out to me. Wasn’t sure what to expect before starting, very glad I did.

Fantastic! Great history and compelling stories.
