The Three Edwards - War and State in England 1272 - 1377
This book is an excellent introduction to this eventful period in history, offering students of history and the Middle Ages a fascinating insight into the reigns of three very different sovereigns: * Edward I – a confident and masterful conqueror of Wales * Edward II – defeated by the Scots, humiliated and deposed * Edward III – triumphant against the French, but reigned through the ravages of plague.
An expose of the dark and critical role secret societies play within the ruling families in America and their influence on American democracy, current events, and world history. * Reveals the enormous influence secret societies still have on contemporary American life. * Shows how the secret Masonic cells that smuggled in the democratic ideals inspiring the American Revolution also enabled the future elite of the new society to build huge fortunes. Elite and secret societies have always been a major force in the history of Western civilization.
