Publisher's summary

This classic expose of the Fed has become one of the best-selling books in its category of all time. Where does money come from? Where does it go? Who makes it? The money magician's secrets are unveiled. Here is a close look at their mirrors and smoke machines, the pulleys, cogs, and wheels that create the grand illusion called money. A boring subject? Just wait. You'll be hooked in five minutes. It reads like a detective story - which it really is, but it's all true.

This book is about the most blatant scam of history. It's all here: the cause of wars, boom-bust cycles, inflation, depression, prosperity. Your world view will definitely change. Putting it quite simply, this may be the most important book on world affairs you will ever read.

The 5th Edition includes a no-holds barred analysis of bank bailouts under the Bush and Obama Administrations that are shown to be nothing less than legalized plunder of the American people. Many other updates have been added, including a revision to the list of those who attended the historic meeting at Jekyll Island, where the Federal Reserve was created.

Intriguing. Sobering. Incredible.

Very good book. I picked it up as a recommendation from a family member, and glad that I did. Strongly suggest you give it a try.

Excellent Book on the Fed

Since the original publication of this book, Mr. Griffin has greatly expanded its content. I must say, I do appreciate his efforts in doing so. If the listener gives his or her attention to the subject matter presented, a strong desire to "end the Fed" will certainly take hold. Indeed, it must be ended. The reader (presenter) of this audio book, did an excellent job too.

Eye opening

Very long and deep but very important to understanding our monetary system and why our world operates the way it does.

Required reading!

This book is well organized to make the case the creature must be removed. Should be required reading of every student in high school. That is one way to build the army to defeat the creature. I really did not understand the money system before I read this book. Now I understand. In a meeting with my banker I asked him to define “fiat money”. The banker could not. It seems the problem is ignorance. We must educate the public immediately. Then we can build the army to defeat the creature. Well done!

Extremely Well Researched Book

I really enjoyed the attention to detail in this book. Although I don't completely agree with everything the author has presented, he has made very good points.

A must read.

At first, I didn't think I would finish it, but then it grabs on and doesn't let go. It will be too much for some to handle. The rest owe it to themselves to read it.
