Product Description
Uncover the secrets of clandestine societies throughout history, from the ancient Mediterranean civilizations to the Mafia and the Ku Klux Klan. Consider the power of the clique, of hoarded knowledge, and of particular belief systems. Precisely because of their closed nature, suspicion greeted many of these organizations. Among the circles examined in this revealing study: the Knights Templar, Zoroastrians, Rosicrucians, Freemasons, Chinese Triads, and Nazi occult societies.
