This book shows aspects of American history not taught in schools. Full of otherwise hidden agendas of America's Elite families and how their fortunes were actually made. Starting with the earliest settlers right up to today's headlines, this book should cause revisions to many history books but probably will not because of the behind the scenes manipulation of families who would prefer that thier true beginnings not be known. From slave trading to outright murder, some of America's "elite" family names are named. Anyone interested in TRUE history should read it.

I started this book and noticed that there were a lot of cites to authorities shown (footnotes,) but when I looked them up, they were mostly from a small group, few actual works. The story of the interlaced networks of mutually engaged families is fascinating, however, so, after putting it down for a week or so, I did read it through and learned a perspective that is new to me. I'd like it if there were more detailed literary and historical documents cited, because I'd find it more credible, which I would wish to do!
