Quigley exposes the secret society's established in London in 1891, by Cecil Rhodes. Quigley explains how these men worked in union to begin their society to control the world. He explains how all the wars from that time were deliberately created to control the economies of all the nations.
On rare occasions, a book is published which must forever alter how we view the world around u$. Within a short while, it becomes difficult to understand how we could have functioned without the knowledge gained from it. The Anglo-American Establishment is such a book. In it, Professor Carroll Quigley presents crucial "keys" without which 20th-century political, economic, and military events can never be fully understood. Moreover, the reader will see that this applies to events past-present -and future.
While the notion of conspiratorial influence on world events has gained credence with both extremities of the American political spectrum and, to a degree, with the general public, the more academically-oriented person has tended to downplay such influence, largely because of the lack of scholarship in the presentation and analysis of the facts by those supporting the conspiracy theories. In addition, many such supporters have made themselves easy to ignore and, in fact, have themselves always assumed that they would be ignored. Professor Quigley's work does not suffer from these defects. On the contrary, the evidence he presents here appears irrefutable; the analysis—brilliant.
In his own words:
"It is not easy for an outsider to write the history of a secret group of this kind, but... it should be done, for this group is, as I shall show, one of the most important historical facts of the twentieth century, I suppose in the long view my attitude would not be far different from that of the (society)... but agreeing with the group on goals, I cannot agree with them on methods. . . In this group were persons who must command the admiration and affection of all who know of them. But, on the other hand, in this group were persons whose lives have been a disaster to our way of life. Unfortunately... the influence of the Latter kind has been stronger. . . I have been told that the story I relate here would be better left untold... the last thing I should wish is that anything I write could be used by the anglophobes... but I feel the truth... once told... can be of injury to no men of good will."
