his absorbing text traces the occult influence of secret societies on politics and statecraft through the centuries from ancient Egypt to the present era, showing how they affected such well-known historical figures such as John Dee, Frederick the Great, Francis Bacon, Benjamin Franklin, Helen Blavatsky, Rasputin, and Woodrow Wilson.

This is really an expose of what the 1861 GOP Federal war against the Southern States was about... unconstitutional federal taxes imposed by the GOP-FEDS! The real conservatives left the union because of the illegal federalization of the national government by the GOP.

The information found in I Rode with Tupper, although written in 1992, is timeless. The story of the IRS's persecution, prosecution, and then more persecution of this author, pianist, songwriter, and passive resistor F. Tupper Saussy is also a ride through history.

In ransacking old court records, newspapers, diaries and letters for the historic foundation of the books which I have written on colonial history, I have found and noted much of interest that has not been used or referred to in any of those books. An accumulation of notes on old-time laws, punishments and penalties has evoked this volume. The subject is not a pleasant one, though it often has a humorous element; but a punishment that is obsolete gains an interest and dignity from antiquity and its history becomes endurable because it has a past only and no future.
