A conspiracy to sell a book,
By
This review is from: The Bilderberg Conspiracy (Paperback)
This is a major disappointment. While the book does set out in fair detail the founding and history of the Bilderbergers, it really never comes to a point. The reader is never brought "inside the world's most powerful secret society". It tells what others think of the group and its powerful members, where the group has met and the various individuals who have attended, it never arrives at a conclusion; it never connects the dots, one way or the other. The book could have done with better editing. Perhaps the book might be of value to someone coming to this topic for the first time, but no one else will benefit from it.

Disappointing II,
This review is from: The Bilderberg Conspiracy (Paperback)
Save your money. I guarantee that you can find more and better stuff for free on Internet. The book is written as if some producer from National Geographic was behind it. "It may be that..." and "Some people think that....". I read the first 70 pages which felt like reading the same three pages over and over again, except for the part that it was very clear on how the group was created and why.
No footnotes, and really just poorly documented makes this a no-read.

H Paul Jeffers Has Zero Credibility,
By BlackJack21 "BlackJack21" (Connecticut/USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Bilderberg Conspiracy (Paperback)
H. Paul Jeffers' book is nothing but rehashes of Daniel Estulin's "True Story of the Bilderberg Group", Jim Tucker's "The Bilderberg Diary" and Alex Jones' documentary film "The End Game." Plus, Jeffers manages to sneak in tidbits from James Perloff's well-known book " The Shadows of Power the Council on Foreign Relations and the American Decline" simply because he lacks the necessary research material to successfully pull "The Bilderberg Conspiracy" book together.
And unfortunately, H. Paul Jeffers doesn't introduce anything new to the discourse. To put it in layman's terms...there's nothing enlightening to read here folks! So, if you've already read Estulin, Tucker and watched Jones' film then I implore you to give this book a pass, and even if you didn't, take a pass anyway. Moreover, the fact that H. Paul Jeffers stated that the Six Day War took place in 1973 is downright comical. Mr. Jeffers should have known that The Six Days War was June 5th 1967. And what makes it even worse is that he makes this foolish statement/BLUNDER not once, but twice. And you can read it for yourself on pages 45 and 52 in Amazon previews. And to properly end my review I must solemnly address Mr. Jeffers: I'm sorry, I don't mean to embarrass you (H. Paul Jeffers), but the war you were trying to refer to was The Yom Kippur War of 1973. I think you should try to be cognizant when researching your subjects. Be more thorough in the future. Any mistakes you make causes one to question your credibility. And with that said I don't feel your book is a reliable source, and it's painfully obvious that none of the other Amazon reviewers thought much of the material you presented either. I'm sorry if my criticism seems harsh, but that's entertainment my friend. "The Bilderberg Conspiracy" receives a 1 Star rating. Save your money folks!!!!

A real let down.,
By
This review is from: The Bilderberg Conspiracy (Paperback)
I wish Amazon gave zeroes for book reviews. I had high hopes reading this. I really liked the beginning. That was good. Then it got really choppy. The writing was bad. Am I the only one that noticed how the author didn't attribute his sources properly? He didn't go into great deal about what happened in individual meetings. He just said that they talked about different topics and that was a theme throughout the whole book. You know how Orwell said that a lie told often enough becomes the truth, and, I wouldn't be surprised if there was something in-between this author's view of the whole thing and the conspiratorial view of it. There certainly is a network of global elites that I think this author downplayed and he mocked people who had opposing views and made them out to be just people making something sinister out of a bunch of people just meeting together. Then he went on to provide credence to these views and I'm wondering what side he's on. He does provide a good case for the bilderburg's security and why it's like that... but... then he goes on to say that the bilderburg group has a controlling interest in oil, and, other affairs like US foreign policy and that it seeks to influence them. He doesn't exactly say what his own views are on the subject. Sometimes he'll start a passage and then it'll look like he believes in it but he doesn't.
I learned a lot about bilderburg history from this book but I disbelieve the author in that thinking that they're just a bunch of free-trade advocates. He makes it seem like they're totally benign... I disagree with the author that the group does nothing wrong and is free from scrutiny because people would be bored by the meetings. Don't waste your money on this. Just buy a book about the history of the bilderburg group. This book was a real let down.

Better books on the subject out there,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Bilderberg Conspiracy (Paperback)
From my perspective this book was not a primary source of information as is Daniel Estulins book "The true story of Bilderberg" and" Jim Tuckers Bilderberg Diaries". Rather hard to read and follow.
