The Conspiracy Book: A Chronological Journey through Secret Societies and Hidden Histories (Union Square & Co. Chronologies)

Perfect book for anyone who loves secret societies. The exterior of the book is very nice, with foiling; it looks sharp on a book shelf. This was purchased as a gift, so I cannot comment on the content/research quality, but the recipient loved it.

I wish it would’ve have gone more in depth about conspiracy’s. With that said , This whole series of books from this publishing group. It was like a dirty lil secret book about the origins of so many obscure “stories” “tall tales” and “Conspiracy”.

Really interesting stuff, but the latter half of the book focused a LOT on like... what secret societies inspired Hitler and the Nazis, or the KKK/racists... there were some entries on like societies combating those things, but it just got a lot less interesting around the latter half when it just KEPT going on about that. Like there were several entries on each society that inspired the Nazis, but one overall dedicated to like anti-KKK societies fighting against the KKK, instead of individual entries for them as well. Seemed a little unbalanced. I don't think I remember him mentioning anything about like the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, either, which, while more into the occult, was also a secret society. I guess he's got that more in his Occult book, and this one is more just normal political history that involves secret societies. Still lots of interesting tidbits in it, especially in the first half and when he writes about the Freemasons and stuff like that.

this 212+ page beautifully bound book is fantastic! the 4 page introduction is extremely informative; the table of contents lists the 100 organizations or movements, which are each covered in single page encyclopedic form, with clear & accurate references to the organizations from which each sprang, the circumstances of why they arose, their demise, & any organization which each may have parented; the full color, illustrations which accompany each article, together with written descriptions of what each image depicts, are themselves worth the price of the book; there’s a 6 page section for further reading, a 5 page index, & a page of image credits; it’s a chronological journey through time (the years are conveniently indicated on the side of each page) & that’s really how this book should be read, from beginning to end, for maximum insight into the “stream” of how these movements developed & how they relate to each other

A lot of secret societies in this book.

This book describes the secret societies. In guves you a brief overview with a timeline description. It is a great starting point to get in touch with information about secret societies as it refers to more books to get a more deep understanding.

I'm as nerd for literature and this did not disappoint me.

I quite enjoy this book. The cover is beautiful and the pages are full of information regarding secret societies and conspirorists. The pictures are all in color and the written descriptions are thoroughly enticing. I do recommend this book for those of you who enjoy a but of history and a lot of conspiracy.

This book is very eye opening and a fantastic read couldn't hardly put it down full of fantastic facts

Cool book !

Amazing book

The photos here do not do it justice, this really is a lovely book. A perfect ‘gift book’. I’ve bought it as a Christmas gift and kinda tempted to read it myself! It’s very attractive it feels like a rough material with a shiny gold print, it really stands out. Very pleased.

I bought this book as a present. Looks good and full of interesting reading
