1: Boring read
I bought this book without doing any research on the author of the book. Something which I will never do again!
Needless to say, I couldn't finish reading this book. The book may be full of important information, however the author failed to establish rapport with the readers which make it a boring read.

2: History Unfolded!
A great addition to any library! If Your a true historian and someone who desires to know about American beginnings this is the book to read! It will remain in My library for My kid's and their kid's to read if I can help it

Revealing look at America's founding fathers, who adopted the Iroquois confederacy concept. For in depth masonic info (& America's hidden history), check out Secret Destiny of America and Brotherhood of the Sun.

4: Setting Up The Stage
I thought the first half of this book had a lot of information regarding are founding fathers and their individual accomplishments along with a shortly detailed discription of different secret societies. However, the second half of the book was very repititious with talks of psychology and the whole mysticism metaphysical b.s. that lead him to his own conclusions about the seal that most likely are not true because of the many examples of the possibilities that the seal can be broken down. There is a deeper purpose behind this book and it is setting us up to believe that a one world unified system will be a good thing, when the truth is that it won't be. We can't be too focused on the learning of one "self" because then we become "selfish" and that goes hand in hand with deep thinking, science, the metaphysical world and that just takes us away from who we should really be worshiping. I feel like I can't write anymore because people need to find out for themselves the real purpose of this book.

5: Fascinating and Compelling
I have not posted a review on [...], or for that matter, any other book-related website for several years, but felt I had to do so after reading Founding Fathers, Secret Societies. Dr. Robert Hieronimus, ably assisted by Laura Cortner, have given us a book for our times, and one of the most fascinating and compelling retellings of the founding of this country ever published. With true scholarship and first class story-telling, Hieronimus and Cortner establish for us the ethics and humanity upheld by the League of Iroquois, and the tremendous impact that their beliefs and actions had on our founding fathers. They go on to decode in detail the true meanings of the Great Seal of the United States and reassert the real vision behind the founding of our great nation. I don't read a lot of fiction, but I read this book with the attention and focus I usually reserve only for a true page-turner of a novel. And given the ever-deepening rifts in our current body politic, I came away from Founding Fathers profoundly moved and, yes, inspired. I can only add that no matter what your political predisposition may be, this remarkable volume offers us all an opportunity to reflect on the real story behind the birth of America, the true vision its founders had for the republic, and some practical thoughts on how we can all help it to get back on track. Robert Hieronimus and Laura Cortner have performed a great service in making this knowledge available to all of us, and I for one thank them for their efforts. A must read.
