Updated with a new preface, this study provides a comprehensive biography of Thomas Dunckerley. An eighteenth-century success story, Dunckerley rose from obscurity to a twenty-year-long career in the Royal Navy, the centerpiece of which was the famous Siege of Quebec. He retired from the navy to climb to the highest echelons of English Freemasonry, holding Grand Masterships and Provincial Grand Masterships across England and across Orders. He was a tender family man, an inspiring leader and heroic patriot. He also had a secret. When Dunckerley was in his forties, his mother left a deathbed confession of her seduction and adultery-and his illegitimacy. As Dunckerley revealed his mother's confession, his friends and Masonic colleagues were thunderstruck to discover he was not the son of a porter at Somerset House, but of the late King George II. For his contemporaries and biographers, all good things in his later career seemed to flow from this revelation. His mother's confession was not Dunckerley's real secret, however. What he actually hid, even from his wife of fifty years, was that the confession, the seduction, the hidden royal birth were all lies-so well-crafted that even now, more than two hundred years after his death, they are still held as Masonic gospel.

The Secret Teachings of All Ages is perhaps the most comprehensive and complete esoteric encyclopedia ever written. The sheer scope and ambition of this book are stunning. In this book Manly P. Hall has successfully distilled the essence of more arcane subjects than one would think possible. He covers Rosicrucianism and other secret societies, alchemy, cryptology, Kabbalah, Tarot, pyramids, the Zodiac, Pythagorean philosophy, Masonry, gemology, Nicholas Flammel, the identity of William Shakespeare, The Life and Teachings of Thoth Hermes Trismegistus, The Qabbalah, The Hiramic Legend, The Tree of the Sephiroth, and Mystic Christianity. There are more than 200 illustrations included here (and in the trade paperback edition) many of which have been omitted from other publisher's editions of this book. This is essential reading for anyone wishing to explore esoteric knowledge.

Just as Hitler wanted a New World Order, we now have a new world order, also called Globalism taking shape. We must all face the challenges of giving up our national sovereignty, many of our constitutionally guaranteed freedoms, peace, and prospertity. We must consider the reality of One World Government and One World Religion. We must consider The European Union, The North American Free Trade Agreement, The World Trade Organization Agreement, and numerous other such little discussed Agreements. We must consider The United Nations Report of the Commission on Global Governance, along with its Agenda 21, sustainablility and population reduction because it is easier for the powers that be, like the Trilateral Commission and their associates, to control a population of 1.5 billion rather than 8 or more billion people. The Global 2000 Report, The Charter of Economic Right and Freedoms, are largely being dismissed. Why? Herein we discuss the almost inexplicable ethical and philosophical reasons much of the world has long hated the Jewish peoples, the Gypsy peoples, the Aboriginals, and the disabled, of any and all nations. This book is a thought provoking attempt to reveal how money and power become concentrated in the hands of a few well known, well respected, evil beings, their families, their secret societies, and often their religious organizations. These same families and organizations, have through psychological conditioning of populations, through the centuries maintained control of societies, policies, and history.
