Book Review: Founding Fathers, Secret Societies

-

Almost all Americans go through life knowing who the Founding Fathers are and their significance, but most people have no idea about the Founding Fathers’ connections to secret societies such as the Freemasons, the Rosicrucians, and even the Illuminati.

 

Dr. Robert Hieronimus presents these connections and reveals the influences that these societies had on men such as George Washington and Benjamin Franklin through his book Founding Fathers, Secret Societies, which presents a “vision that can unite, guide, and inspire us…” (David A. Burnet, member of the Rosicrucian Order).

Founding Fathers, Secret Societies examines the American ideals that were influenced by these secret societies. It also examines the details of the Seal of the United States and the secrets behind them, like the all-seeing eye with the Pyramid, which is a symbol of the Illuminati.

 

The reverse side of the Seal reveals a blueprint that conveys the secret destiny of America. This book is the “best thing of its kind that has ever been written” (Whitley Strieber, host of Dreamland with Whitley Strieber). Frank Joseph, author of The Lost Treasure of King Juba, says that “anyone turning the pages…opens a secret door to the lost history of our country. By exposing the hidden roots of the Unites States, Robert Hieronimus has restored a sense of American destiny.”

Dr. Hieronimus also proves the influence of the League of the Iroquois upon the Founding Fathers. The League of the Iroquois, contrary to popular belief, actually had a democracy before the U.S. was founded, and the League greatly influenced the Founding Fathers to believe that a Democratic Republic could actually work.

Founding Fathers, Secret Societies is a great read. It is a book that can change how one views America and its destiny, while he discovers “something new on every page” (Graham Hancock, author of Fingerprints of the Gods).
