Hidden History: An Exposé of Modern Crimes, Conspiracies, and Cover-Ups in American Politics

Overall, this is an excellent examination of various cover-ups and controversial subjects in recent US history (since 1963). Jeffries does a good job explaining the concept of fake liberals/leftists, and the idea that elites prefer to create a controlled political opposition to maintain the appearance of democracy. This includes a compliant corporate media, and the phony Republican-Democrat puppet show.The chapter on the JFK assassination is pretty good. The MLK section is too short and doesn't mention the 1999 civil trial. The RFK chapter is very well done. Chappaquiddick and Watergate could have been discussed in more detail. The book gets much stronger dealing with the 1980s and beyond. The Reagan-Bush-Clinton-Bush-Obama years are covered in detail, including black operations, false flags, mysterious deaths and cover-ups that I had either forgotten or never heard about. There is no partisanship here. Jeffries skewers both parties equally, and even gets into the darker regions of child trafficking.The chapter on the death of JFK Jr. is also excellent, and contains a lot of information that was new to me.There are a few weak spots, though. There is no mention of the USS Liberty, which appeared to be an attempt by the Israelis and Lyndon Johnson to sink an American ship, blame Egypt for it, and get the US involved in the Six Day War (perhaps to overthrow Nasser and retake the Suez Canal). There are also a few errors. Operation Northwoods was not a CIA plan; it was conceived by the Pentagon. He also claims that Nixon was the first President to impose wage and price controls, but this was also done by FDR during World War II. I don't understand the praising of Ferdinand Marcos either (he misses the chance to discuss the Golden Lily treasure here).Some quotes are also questionable. I've never been able to confirm that the Sarah McClendon quote from GHWB was actually printed in her newsletter. Has anyone ever seen a copy of it? The Caroline Kennedy quote about Obama is from a very iffy source. The William Colby quote is found all over the internet; it apparently comes from Dave McGowan and I'm skeptical that he actually said it.I also wish there was a bibliography. Still, I highly recommend this book. Jeffries has obviously been researching these subjects for a long time, and a few errors are unavoidable in a work like this.

I was motivated to read “Hidden History” after I read Don Jeffries latest book “Crimes and Coverups in American Politics - 1776 – 1963.” “Hidden History” rolls out rapidly and covers a vast amount of ground in just a few sentences and paragraphs. The book is a jarring exposé of real-life historic events which are decidedly disturbing. I have personal knowledge of a number of the events that the book describes and have known personally a number of the people involved. Jeffries quotes former CIA Director William Colby as telling author John DeCamp, of the book “Franklin Coverup” “ . . .sometimes there are forces and events too big, too powerful, with so much at stake for other people or institutions that you cannot do anything about them, no matter how evil or wrong they are . . .” Later, the same William Colby is found dead in the Potomac under what appear to be suspicious circumstances. There have been so many “suicides” and accidents of those who could have revealed information that would have been troublesome to those in power that the US life expectancy must have been decreased. Such deaths are far too numerous and meaningful to have occurred by mere chance. The descriptions of the events and people come at the reader very fast and require close focus to comprehend the connections involved and the significances of them. I have done a lot of research on the 9/11 events, the Oklahoma City bombing, the assassinations of JFK, RFK, MLK Jr. and JFK, Jr., the events involving the Clintons, and many others to know that the book has the distinct ring of truth. In the future, I would like Jeffries to delve into the Jeffrey Epstein “suicide,” the death of Associate Justice Antonin Scalia in Texas, the death of DNC worker Seth Rich in D.C., the “suicide” of FBI Special Agent Salvatore “Sal” Cincinelli in Austin, Texas in mid-2019, who was investigating the Clinton Foundation, and those of others – yet to be “suicided.” Although we know that suspicious and meaningful deaths predate the establishment of the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) in the USA, we long have had a huge problem involving a “shadow government/deep state” and what appear to be demonic forces at large and the CIA looks like a modern prime suspect. “Hidden History” should give the reader a period of insomnia and fear as well as great respect for those who dare to push back against the evil disclosed in the book. I am left wondering and pondering what the “big picture” of all this is. Are we really living in a contrived matrix? What is the “end game” to all this? As for the thought that there could not be a covert conspiracy without someone talking, well, that is taken care of by all the untimely deaths – and there are a lot of them.

Open and honest. Great research and background info. Good complimentary reading and updates, such as the fate of Boner on the Franklin Coverup.

Must read. Interesting read. This book delves into what really happened and was omitted from mainstream history curriculum and discussions.

This touched on some rather interesting information about past Presidents and other figures. Telling some little known facts and secrets. I highly recommend.

For those with a taste for modern American historical conspiracies, author Donald Jeffries serves up a full course dinner.By their very nature, political conspiracies are difficult to decipher and even more difficult to explain. The author doesa nice job attempting to separate the wheat from the chaff. Ultimately, this book may raise more questions than it answers.And that's a good thing.Hidden History begins with The Mother of All Conspiracies: The Assassination of John Fitzgerald Kennedyand takes the reader through the Sixties and Seventies, the administrations of Reagan, Bush, Clinton, Bush,and Obama. It ends with the chapter Where Do We Stand Now?Chronicling these events is an ambitious and difficult task, but author Jeffries manages well. Hidden Historyis a compelling read and an important one. The reader will be reminded of things forgotten and undoubtedlylearn some things they didn't know.Even those skeptical of things conspiratorial would benefit from reading Hidden History, in my opinion.
