Product Description

Review

"An updated reprint with a new forward not long before the author's death..." -- Nexus, August 2003.

Book Description

For 170 years they have met in secret. From out of their initiates come presidents, senators, judges, cabinet secretaries, and plenty of spooks. They are the titans of finance and industry and have now installed a third member as United States President George W. Bush. This intriguing behind-the-scenes look documents Yale's secretive society, the Order of the Skull and Bones, and its prominent members, numbering among them Tafts, Rockefellers, Pillsburys, and Bushes. Far from being a campus fraternity, the society is more concerned with the success of its members in the post-collegiate world. Included are a verified membership list, rare reprints of original Order materials revealing the interlocking power centers dominated by Bonesmen, and a peek inside the Tomb, their 140-year-old private clubhouse.

5.0 out of 5 stars Establishment history put in some context, Aug 23 2004

By

MARK (Calgary AB Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: America's Secret Establishment: An Introduction to the Order of Skull & Bones (Hardcover)

Ever wonder how a bankrupt country with 5000% inflation could build the world's premier military in 'secret' and then conquer half the globe? Ever wonder why the Roosevelt/Truman administrations built the Industry (illegally under Lend Lease) of history's most vicious despot calling him friend then SURPRISE he's NOW suddenly not our friend but still sit back let them have most of Central Europe? So this Police State can't build a car or telephone that works to save it's life but it paces Western military technological development for 50 years? It's almost as if a group of people promote conflicts in order to profit from the conflicts then use the same conflicts as an excuse to curtail the rights everyone worldwide in order to profit yet more.

The author like myself wanted to believe the government sponsored history but was always haunted by a voice in the back of his head saying, 'This doesn't add up ... this is too convenient'. Well be haunted no longer - lift your viel.

This is not a book that reads like a novel. By the author's clear warnings it is a collection of memoranda - a collection of study. It is heavily sourced - footnotes and quotes litter the pages. Most of the information is public but has just not been advertised and/or compared to other public pieces of information to form a coherent modus operandi. Conclusions are drawn by the author that are not supported by the evidence of a smoking gun. The subject is afterall a secretive network so there are no memos reading, "Dear American People: Joe, Bill and I are currently working together to defraud your treasury and enslave your children, sincerely yours Bob."

Yes, part of it is circumstantial evidence. But when the same group of people are linked to every suspicious event in world history since just before the US Civil War perhaps you should investigate them! After all aren't most criminal cases decided by circumstantial evidence? Jury's use their own common sense to connect the dots and come to a verdict.

Common sense!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read for All Who Cherish American Freedom, Feb 3 2004

By

Richard M. Smith II "rmsi" (Texas USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: America's Secret Establishment: An Introduction to the Order of Skull & Bones (Hardcover)

This well researched and masterfully written work exposes the nature and purpose of the Order of Skull & Bones along with the names of every member inducted into this evil order from 1833 through 1985; including Kellogg, Bush, Goodyear, Murchison, Kerry, Ford and many other well known politicians, bankers, oil men, industrialists and major news personalities. The list of names is absolutely astonishing! This is definitely not a harmless college fraternity. Members remain active for life-not just their senior year. The CIA recruits agents and operatives from this order. Others appear in the revolving door between Washington and corporate America. This is but one among many secret societies determined to force upon mankind the New World Order that madmen like Adolf Hitler, the Rockefellers, and George H.W. Bush have raved about for centuries. George W. Bush has admitted that during, "My senior year, I joined Skull & Bones, a secret society, so secret I can't say anything more." If it has to be secret, it can't be good.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Uncensored Examination of The Skull & Bones Order, Aug 19 2003

By

Jed Shlackman (Miami, FL United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: America's Secret Establishment: An Introduction to the Order of Skull & Bones (Hardcover)

Antony Sutton, rogue historian, has done a nice job examining the history, motives, and methods of the Skull & Bones Order. The Hegelian dialectic is seen as a chief method of their manipulation of society, and the presence of Skull members G.W. Bush & John Kerry on opposite sides of the 2004 election campaign would seem to support this contention. Sutton was apparently supplied with documentation of Order membership and some other aspects of Skull & Bones history. Some of his ideas are speculative, though it is clear that Sutton looks for the most logical explanation, no matter how unpleasant or politically incorrect that conclusion may be. Sutton died in the year this latest (2002) edition was published, and he has left a legacy of books that document the presence of establishment elite conspiratorial activity. This is an excellent book for those seeking a meaningful understanding of history and current events.
