Description: Secret societies have played critical roles in building the fortunes of America's elite. They continue to wield power even today as organizations such as Yale's Skull & Bones unite America's modern ruling families as strongly as Masonic Lodges once connected the Astors, Livingstons, and Roosevelts. Steven Sora (1952-2021) had been researching historical enigmas since 1982 and was the author of The Lost Treasure of the Knights Templar.
