Claiming to be of the contents of a "secret government report"
until it was proven false by the investigative work of journalist
and scholars, Report from Iron Mountain outlines the social
structure changes that would come with world peace in the 1960s.
This political satire that took the world by storm under the guise
of a "secret government report" was a bestselling novel of the late
1960s. After journalists and scholars debated for years over its
disturbing claims, the truth revealed that the perplexing,
ingenious, and ceaselessly curious Report from Iron Mountain was
not filled with contents of a top-secret document, but rather made
up of writer/editor Leonard Lewis's own fictional predictions.
Lewis claims that the condition of permanent peace at the end of
the Cold War would threaten the nation's economic and social
stability, in addition to his controversial examination of how
political leadership reflects on the nation's ability to go to war.
Though proven to be a false claim of nonfiction, Lewin and the
consortium of peace movement intellectuals that conceived and
launched the concept went on to publish a book that would take on a
life of its own, far from what was intended.
