5.0 out of 5 stars See How They Play, October 13, 2008

This review is from: Cheque Mate: The Game of Princes (Paperback)

Having read many books on the New World Order, conspiracy theories and the like, Baker's "Cheque Mate" is one of those highly individual ones. It uniquely shows how the "Princes" of our world are using humanity like pawns on a chess board. He identifies who the big players are and how, throughout history to the present, this game has developed in all aspects of our lives -- religion, politics, education, the media, the arts, publishing, industry, commerce, etc.
Though full of facts and figures the book is an easy read. It is difficult to put down because you realize that it is of the utmost importance to understand the contents personally. Our lives depend on it!
Most of us can now see that those things warned of in "Cheque Mate" -- first published fifteen years ago -- have clearly taken place. So his claims, since it was first written, are now backed by irrefutable proof! Indeed we are now presently in the global financial earthquake. Other very recent history is showing us how much of what's been stated by Baker has already come to pass. You'll see those things on reading it. So any detractors are check-mated by recent history alone.
I was near to tears reading the first two chapters which deal with how America was when he was a boy. It reminded me of my native Britain when I too was a boy, and how I remembered the US we loved (as it was reported then): nations which had moral backbone and moral leaders. He shows how and why we were solid, decent people then and how and why we have become spineless and decadent. And again the data is irrefutable.
It is a book which will fill you with indignation or frustration. On reading it, you will either feel you want to rise up against the outrageous, inhumane laws forced on our unwitting peoples by corrupt lawmakers and crooked politicians or get on your knees praying for deliverance from them (depending on your type of character)!
It would have been a bargain at twice the price I paid. This is another book I would encourage readers to pass on to friends and family. But once you've read it, you won't need me to tell you that!

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING YET TRUE, October 14, 2004

By 

Lelaine "Leelaloos" (TUCSON, AZ USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cheque Mate: The Game of Princes (Paperback)

This book is amazingly accurate, and reflects that a great deal of study and first hand knowledge went into this book. I enjoy reading factual books which contain the proof and background information laid out well enough that the reader can then check the facts out for themselves. There may be a few things that are not completely accurate, but most of this is so, folks. I have been studying the Illuminati and other connected organizations for the last 30 years. When I would tell people about the conspiracy and the New World Order they were planning (WAYYYY before George Bush Sr. EVER mentioned that name), people would scoff and say it was too far fetched, even the born again Christians who believe in this sort of thing. Yet, once George Bush (Sr.) revealed that it was about to be put in place, STILL no-one believed me; they actually thought it was a COINCIDENCE that he mentioned that exact name, on SEVERAL occasions that I know of! People believe what they are comfortable believing, I suppose. Nevertheless, the warnings in this book might become more believable as the New World Order is brought more to the forefront. The only parts I had problems with were the last chapter of the book, where the author suddenly stops his analytical and factual style and starts pushing the old fashioned male chauvanism that I grew up with in the church. It is so unbelievably archaic, and the reason that most churches have abandoned those sort of teachings is that they found out the verses they were using had been mistranslated, so there is NO biblical reason to think that women are subject to men! The Greek verb used to state that women should submit to themselves to their husbands was in fact a reciprocal verb which meant in turn that the men had to submit themselves to their wives. In other words, marriage is a give and take partnership. All that aside, this part of the book did not fit in at all. It went from a political and factual expose to a religious teaching that was entirely inappropriate for this book. All in all, I still give the book 5 stars, because of the amazing work done and the fact that this book is a timely warning, indeed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent coverage of the subject, April 12, 1999

By 

[e-mail] (Iowa USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Cheque Mate: The Game of Princes (Paperback)

Baker takes a religious point of view to the events of the past 200 years and in doing so sheds light on the moral inconsistencies of our present world and reveals what he has learned over the years about what is happening to us. His evaluation of events in the US during the last 50 years is quite insightful.

Detail is excellent and overall the book is accurate and consistent with other references on this subject with only minor exceptions when Baker refers mater-of-factly to events in Germany during WW2 of which he obviously has no first hand knowledge and is grossly misinformed.

The strongest part of the book is Section II - The Adversary wherein Baker goes into detail about those behind the "New World Order" and it's secret agenda.

The weakest part of the book is the Section IV - The Final Move - Cheque Mate wherein Bakers conclusions carry an overt religious message and can not be taken literally.
