There's a book out there called Siege written by James Mason, longtime white supremacist. It's a weird book. It's basically articles and interviews all just shoved together.

The best things said about it
Many of his writings were collected into a book also called Siege. Here is a quote from that book. The lone wolf cannot be detected, cannot be prevented, and seldom can be traced.
It was a book originally published in 1993, but that is an edited version of newsletters published in the 80s by a fellow named James Mason who was a lifelong neo-Nazi.
The Adam Waffen terrorist group responsible for three murders so far started off with extremely online Nazis working to form a terror cell in imitation of the book Siege written by James Mason.
He recommends the writing of Nazi accelerationists including James Mason who wrote the influential Nazi book Siege.
The video ended with a quote from James Mason, a neo-Nazi terrorist and author of the book Siege, which is a guide for how to commit terrorism.
That's what things like The Siege tell you to do. Don't go out on the street corner with a picket sign yelling.

Why people recommend it
Siege by James Mason is a foundational and disturbing text that outlines the ideology and tactical approaches of accelerationist white supremacist groups like Atomwaffen. The book was discussed extensively across multiple podcast appearances by guest Scott Payne on The Shawn Ryan Show, This Past Weekend w/ Theo Von, and The Joe Rogan Experience, where he explained how the text serves as a manual for extremists, urging them away from traditional public activism in favor of clandestine and tactical disruption. Additionally, Garrison Davis on Behind the Bastards identified the book as a key Nazi accelerationist work promoted within international white supremacist Telegram networks, while Spencer Sunshine detailed on the same show that the text is an edited compilation of 1980s newsletters written by Mason, a lifelong neo-Nazi who joined the American Nazi party as a teenager in 1966. Speakers highlighted how the book remains a dangerous ideological touchstone for modern underground terror groups, operating as a collection of disjointed articles and interviews that nevertheless offer a blueprint for radical fringe movements seeking societal collapse.
