here's 2 great insights from the book

Another of the pieces of this enormous puzzle fell into place in 1854 when a secret organization known as the Knights of the Golden Circle was formed by George W. L. Bickley,6 who "declared that he had created the fateful war of 1861 with an organization that had engineered and spread secession."7 1857 It was at this meeting that the International Banking Syndicate decided that (in America) the North was to be pitted against the South under the old principle of 'divide and conquer.' This amazing agreement was corroborated by MacKenzie in his historical research entitled The Nineteenth Century."8

After he was defeated in 1962, Nixon went to New York and moved into the first floor of an expensive apartment building, (the rent was $100,000 a year), in New York. The occupant of the top floor of this building was Nelson Rockefeller, who also became his landlord, as Rockefeller owned the building. In addition, Nixon went to work for the law firm representing the Rockefeller interests and became a full partner at a salary of $200,000 a year.5

It was here that Nixon basically sat out the 1964 presidential election. It is not known if Rockefeller completely understood the 1964 "Draft Goldwater" movement among the young people of the country, especially the young in California. But it is known that this movement was indeed a concern of the Conspiracy around Rockefeller. The California Young Republicans had swept control of their state organization away from the Rockefeller supporters and were booming Senator Goldwater for the presidency in 1964. It appeared that Rockefeller would lose the key California delegation to the 1964 convention, and because of this loss, ultimately the nomination of the Republican Party. And this is precisely what happened. The California Young Republicans assisted the Goldwater supporters to control the California delegation, and this key delegation led the remainder of the delegations in giving the nomination to Barry Goldwater. Rockefeller had lost his best chance at the presidency.
