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.

This should be required reading in high school or every college

This was an extremely eye opening book. I will re-listen to the entire book to hear things that I may have missed. I purchased this before a 20+ hour round trip driving cant text trip and I am so glad I did.
Eye opening, enlightening, but I am not sure who to share this information with or what to do with it.
I was speechless at so many places.
Excellent choice for the reader/voice for the book. I may invest in the written copy of the price comes down or I can even find it before the book burning continues.

Highly recommended!!!

The best book I have ever read.

I cannot overstate how important it is for you to read this book. The federal reserve must be abolished and here is the clear case for that end. Enjoy!

important read for everyone!

this book is dense and tackles subjects that are not as fun as most other books. Do not be deterred! a greater understanding of the concepts covered in this book by large populations is necessary.

Haunting description of our financial history

Very well researched and backed with historical accounts of the federal reserve system and other central banking systems. It is sobering to see their negative effects on the US economy.

Imperative reading but I hope I am not to late

I am deeply saddened by the deception of our government and leathers and The evil therein. The depth, scope and research of this book is invaluable. I thank the author for his work. I am telling everyone too read this book, but I should have read it right when I purchased it years ago. I hope and pray that we are not too late.

fascinating story of money

lots of bias. but strong enough basics to allow you to reach either the same, parallel or divergent conclusions from exhaustive research and perspectives about how money has always worked . . . even if you make slightly divergent assumptions about the intentions of some of the players.
