New e-book available: The Invisible Government, by Dan Smoot

I just uploaded Dan Smoot's The Invisible Government to Plucker Books.

Published in 1962, The Invisible Government is a scything treatise against the Council on Foreign Relations. In it, Smoot attempts to show how the CFR has – since its creation in the 1920s at the behest of President Wilson and his good friend and adviser Colonel Edward M. House (anonymous author of the infamous Philip Dru: Administrator) – subverted the U.S. government through a number of "interconnections" and placements of its members in high power, up to and including the presidency.

Although a bit boring at times, as much of the books is taken up by lists of names and organizations, it does make for a fairly interesting read just to see the extent to which the high rollers of business and politics schmooze together. Smoot doesn't necessarily do any favors to more mild-mannered conspiracy theorists though, as some of his comments tend to bleed over into racial and cultural editorializations.

Dave undoubtedly will have more to say. In the meantime, check it out.
