Siege (sometimes stylised as SIEGE[5]) is an anthology of essays first published as a single volume in 1992, written in 1980s by James Mason, a neo-Nazi and associate of the cult leader Charles Manson.[6] After growing disillusioned with the mass movement approach of neo-Nazi movements, he began advocating for white revolution through terrorism. Referred to as the "Godfather of Fascist Terrorism", Mason has been proscribed as a "terrorist entity" in Canada.”[7][8] Mason originally wrote the essays for the eponymous newsletter of the National Socialist Liberation Front, a militant splinter of the American Nazi Party.[9]

Yhdysvalloissa avoin "rotusodan" ihannointi sai uutta pontta, kun yhdysvaltalainen uusnatsi James Mason julkaisi Siege-nimisen kirjan 90-luvun alussa. Teos on käännetty suomeksi ja liikkuu myös natsien Telegram-ryhmissä sekä muualla verkossa. [In the United States, the idealization of an open "race war" got a new impetus when the American neo-Nazi James Mason published a book called Siege in the early 90s. The work has been translated into Finnish and is also circulating in Nazi Telegram groups and elsewhere online.](via Google Translate)
