Principles of Mexism
Mexism was conceived as long ago as 1846, intended as a movement to combat, and provide opposition to, the process of industrialisation and mechanisation; a process which the movement's mentor, Kevin Godfrey, knew could only lead to the discovery of atomic structure, which would in turn inevitably lead to the development of nuclear weapons, and the ultimate destruction of the planet 'Earth'.

A German soldier, by the name of Paul Thompson, found the book whilst deserting and kept it. He was captured by the German military police, and returned to the front, where he was shot for his crimes and left, dead, in no-
