Excerpt from World Revolution
In reply to numerous enquiries as to whether the statements I made in The French Revolution have since been disproved, I take this opportunity to say that, as far as I am aware, no one has attempted to bring forward any contrary evidence. The Socialist press was completely silent, whilst hostile reviewers in the general press contented themselves with saying the work was "biassed," but without quoting chapter and verse in support of this assertion. My book was not intended to be the last word on the French Revolution, but the first attempt, in English, to tell the truth, and had my view on any essential point been shown to be erroneous, I should have been perfectly ready to readjust it in further editions. No such honest challenge was made, however; my opponents preferring the method of creating prejudice against my work by attributing to me views I never expressed. Thus, at the moment of this book going to press, it has been brought to my notice that I am represented as having attacked British Freemasonry. This can only have been said in malice, as I have always clearly differentiated between British and Continental masonry, showing the former to be an honourable association not only hostile to subversive doctrines but a strong supporter of law, order, and religion. (See The French Revolution, pp. 20 and 492.)I am in fact indebted to certain distinguished British masons for valuable help and advice in my work, which I here gratefully acknowledge.

Vendeur : Forgotten Books, London, Royaume-Uni
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the origins and evolution of revolutionary movements, tracing their roots back to secret societies and philosophical currents that predate the French Revolution. The author argues that these movements are not merely the product of war or discontent, but rather the result of a deep-laid conspiracy aimed at the destruction of civilization as we know it. Exploring the ideas of influential figures like Rousseau and the clandestine activities of groups like the Illuminati, the book sheds light on the hidden forces that have shaped the course of history. It examines the interplay between secret societies and revolutionary outbreaks, revealing the connections between seemingly disparate events. Through a meticulous analysis of historical documents and firsthand accounts, the author uncovers the true goals and methods of these subversive organizations. The book challenges conventional narratives and offers a thought-provoking perspective on the ongoing struggle between order and chaos. By understanding the origins and nature of this revolutionary conspiracy, we can better recognize and confront the challenges it poses to our world today.
