Publisher's summary

The United States today sits upon a precipice and the dream of the Founding Fathers of a new age of reason for all humankind may soon be washed away by the sands of time as just another failed effort to bring humanity into alignment with the force of natural law.

Time and again, humanity has been brought closer to this dream of an age of moral reason and cooperation that would define the terms of international law, political-economy, the arts, and even science policy. The topic was treated at length in Plato’s Republic, Laws, and Gorgias, just as it was treated by the great Platonist of the Roman Republic Cicero in his Commonwealth and Laws. It was treated thoroughly by the Platonic Christian St. Augustine of Hippo in his City of God and Free Choice of the Will, and it was treated by Augustine’s followers Alcuin (advisor to Charlemagne), Dante Alighieri, Nicholas of Cusa, and countless great Renaissance scholars and statesmen.

The idea of a society founded upon the cultivation of the love of higher pleasures of the spirit rather than the feeding of the lower pleasures of the fleshly passions is thus a long-standing one that has never been properly resolved and that has been sabotaged relentlessly by historic forces seeking to keep humanity enslaved to beliefs in sense perceptions such as serfs chained to a cave wall believing that those shadows cast before their eyes were all the reality that exists.

It is our contention that without an appreciation for this dynamic interplay between sets of paradigms as a driving force in global grand strategy, then it were impossible to achieve any truthful understanding of what made such anomalies of history as the 15th-century Italian Renaissance, the 1648 Peace of Westphalia, or the 1776 American Revolution possible.

This volume will showcase the international grand design led by Benjamin Franklin that manifested in the establishment of the American republic and trace the next 130 years of world history as the USA was targeted for destruction by oligarchical forces from London and also from within leading up to the assassination of William McKinley in 1901.

Eye opening

Makes you look at everything you learn in history class in a different light. Given the outrage of the past 2 years that light needs to be brightly shone on all ee took for granted in western politics.

Shocking how much hidden history there is…

Ehret’s first installment is a masterpiece of brilliant research told through the wisdom of the Ages giving clear detail on the forces shaping our ever corrupting societies.

Must read.

If ever there was a time to learn the insights captured in this book, it would be now.

Excellent dig into the history we’re blocked from

Great insights into the Americas and their continued subordination to the Crown. Once your eyes are opened to the British influence operation, you can realize it’s everywhere.

Can’t wait for the rest of the series to show up in Audible!

Outstanding

A much needed insight into the actual History of matters makes this a Must Read for anyone doing actual serious honest research into how we’ve came to such a point today in the Administration of our Constitutional Republic. Incontrovertible fact thru and thru that has no need of revision. Open your eyes and leave your biases at home then delve into a bit of inspiration. imho of course BUT 👍

A Must Read For All Truth Seekers!

An amazing book that lays out the true, hidden, and dark history of not just America but our world. It is a very fascinating audiobook that keeps you wanting to listen to more and if you think you have a grip on history guess again! I have already listened to the book multiple times and cant wait for Vol.2!

History as it should be taught

If we had 8 half of Americans educated with this history, we would experience growing prosperity instead of growing austerity.

Important book not done justice by narrator

Outstanding walk through history. Mathew Ehret and Cynthia Chung deserve high praise for their tireless research and integrity in bringing this and several other books to us. I can’t thank them enough. I am very disappointed in their choice of narrator however, and hope they will have this book redone in order to do proper justice to this work. The narrator is so hard to listen to that I keep having to force myself to continue in spite of the wonderful content. He even tells you the title and authors at the beginning of each chapter. Aggravating! Great book, terrible reading of it.
