Gods of Money: Wall Street and the Death of the American Century Paperback – January 11, 2011

4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars 47 ratings

Gods of Money is a book about power and about an extraordinarily wealthy elite that has wielded unprecedented power, not for the good, but rather for the enhancement of their own private position. The book tracks the evolution of the power amassed by a tiny group of men who have regarded themselves, quite literally, as gods-the Gods of Money. Their agenda has included assassinations of two of America's most popular presidents; involvement of the United States against the public will in two world wars; and detonation of the world's most destructive weapon, the atomic bomb, on Japanese civilians. It has included scores of regional wars, political assassinations, coups, and systematic corruption of the body politic. The book reveals in an unusual and surprising manner how this powerful elite has systematically set out to literally control the entire world, backed by the most powerful military force the world has ever seen.

    I've read several of Engdahl's books. After you read them, you'll settle down, if you are a political junky, because you will come to realize that the World's Private Jooish Banking system has sucked the life and liberty from many countries throughout the world. The system is permanent, at this point...there isn't a damned thing that "the subject-governments" or the people that are under those governments will ever do about it.
    Too omnipresent and too powerful is what this banking system is, controlling countries' prosperities or lack, thereof by controlling the money flow into and out of those countries.

    Ever wonder why every generation: Must experience the horrors of war? Must live through the vicissitudes of economic booms and busts? Must now live paranoiacally with the specter of terrorism? Follow the money trail to the international banking cartel, the financial elite and their hustlers on Wall Street. They mandate government policy crafted to foist American hegemony and imperialism upon countries/regions targeted for plunder. F. William Engdahl is perhaps the most astute and scholarly geopolitical analyst authoring books with integrity today. Engdahl doesn't produce less than a 5-star work. How can I say this is a favorite?

    This is an excellent book by F. William Engdahl. I have read several others by him and find him to be an excellent author on the subjects he writes about. If you want to know who is really behind the curtain pulling the strings that run the financial world, you must read this book.

    Mr. Engdhal writes an entire paragraph of one sentence. I'm only a fair reader, so I have to concentrate on what I'm reading and sometimes have to re-read something. However, I think he's a brilliant man with important information for us. Haven't finished this yet, but I'm hanging in there !

    The best of Mr Engdahl's trilogy on the powers behind the American Century. Written in easy to understand language, It documents nearly 100 years of fraud and abuse by a cabal of oil and banking Oligarchs. A must read for anyone with questions about why the system seems so dysfunctional.

    Holding a degree in history I already was aware of much of the content but I was surprised to see his history laid out so well. I ordered a copy and had it sent to my sister.

    A real page turner! Engdahl takes on a very revealing walk through economic history, no names changed to protect the guilty. Well written, well researched, this is a must read for anyone who desires to know how the rich keep getting richer accomplish their shenanigans.

    Excellent history book. Should be taught in all schools everywhere. It's high time these criminals be held to account.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A good book, but many repeatings from his earlier work
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 11, 2013
    I have read most of Mr. Engdahls books and this one was as always an eye opener. But I noticed that he has the tendency to repeat material from his former books so it is sort of "old" news. The 2 which are my favorite are "A century of warfare" and "Seeds of Destruction"
