Dr. Quigley researched for this book over the course of 20 years. His source materials were the notes from the secret organizations that controlled financial capitalism worldwide...some with names, others without.
He was granted access to this information from his personal associations as a blueblood Ivy League historian.
Once this book was published in 1966, his publisher recalled all the printed copies and smashed the printing plates at the behest of the individuals this book reveals in unflinching honesty.
The history taught to us throughout our entire lives is a mere patina of the actual events.
Western Civilization has created all the modern world right now.
The path was forged by very few financial capitalists - loyal to no nation. Their avarice is responsible for the greatest advances and worse non-natural loss of human life in the history of the world.
Their belief in Inclusive Diversity led to the financial seeding of all sides of every issue, every type of government, and each emerging economy, in a effort to gain implicit political and financial control.
The period of this book covers 1860 to 1964 in three eras....1860 to 1895...1895 to 1950...1950 to 1964.
Being an avid reader of history, I found myself researching and often reinterpreting the main turning points of history.
Twice I was so dismayed I set this book down for two seperate months to ponder the often confusing and disturbing implications of his impeccable research.
I do not bother to engage in convincing others of the content of this book. I have tried. So few individuals have the patience to absorb this meticulous information nor the spectrum of wonderment required to believe it.
The term "conspiracy theory" is no longer in my lexicon of phrases, because this book socks the brass knuckled truth into the teeth of every sacred historical cow.
I recommend it to everyone. Read every word.
If everyone read this history, we would have no more wars. Not a single one.
At any rate, former President Clinton said it was the most influential book he'd read, and in conspiracy circles, the rumors were always that the author was asked to catalog and organize records of the New World Order. So, in spite of Mr. Clinton's positive recommendation (that guy's a clown), I went looking for evidence of conspiracies, and indeed, found them. They're certainly in there. The basics of it are secular humanism, or, if you will, "civilizing the natives." Imagine a Brit beneath the skin saying, "Wouldn't it be great if all countries were as diplomatic and as orderly as the British? And if we all accepted English as a common language? And Anglophilism as a basis for modern culture?"
He's an American, but with strong British sympathies. He does agree that these rich people that run modern Europe (more akin to Masons), are even more secretive than we foil-hat wearers say they are.
What's more, is that his reading of history is downright insightful. He's obviously a brilliant man. That is inarguable. Whether he's wrong about Anglophilism being the way the world should be, or that Western Civilization never reconciled itself with Christianity being the dominant issue that we face (I agree with that one) -- both those are ancillary to the general perspecuity with which he views the world. It's like he wears x-ray specs.
I found his passages about the middle class towards the end of the book almost mind-blowing. He even predicts the modern climate today in his passages about "Irrational Activism", and one has to remind himself, "This book was written in 1964!" He predicts the emasculating climate of sexism that exists today that, while it claims that sexism exists against females, it opposes any balance with the male gender. As a male, I read many interesting things that go unsaid by our culture. Because if they are said by our culture, they go against the tide of feminism.
Reading this has been a tale of who done it.
Putting History in Order can An should be done. Then an only then can it truly be comprehensive. Until then it’s just fractions of half Truths. Anway this is a Big Thick Book with small words on thin pages.
It does tell a lots of what I’ve read before. Just not in the conspiracy sort of way.
Just more of this is who did it and those who went along with it and how it came to be.
So far not tired. My eyes might be, but not my brain. Read it. An don’t complain. If your looking for a quick read find something else.
If you don’t understand something look it up on the internet or dictionary.
This might make you purchase other books.
