Through personal, political and professional networks, these bankers strategically exercised, and continue to exercise, disproportionate control over the destiny of billions of people. Nomi Prins offers an explosive account of how this came to be, and how the banks continue to influence the world economy and dominate government. Aligning the complex relationships between political and financial leaders since the early 1900s, Prins exposes the elite bankers that served as unelected leaders and confidants, acting as a shadow government concealed behind the US presidency from Wilson to Obama. With eye-opening correspondence culled from Presidential libraries across the country, against a timeline of two world wars and multiple market crashes, All The Presidents' Bankers traces the shocking consequences of a system in which there is no line between public office and private power"- -|cProvided by publisher. 533 Electronic reproduction.|bNew York|cNation Books|d2014 |nAvailable via World Wide Web. 650 0 Bankers|xPolitical activity|zUnited States|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Bankers|xPolitical activity|zUnited States|xHistory|y21st century. 650 0 Presidents|zUnited States|xHistory|y20th century. 650 0 Presidents|zUnited States|xHistory|y21st century. 650 0 Power (Social sciences)|zUnited States|xHistory. 650 0 Alliances|xPolitical aspects|zUnited States|xHistory. 651 0 United States|xPolitics and government|y20th century. 651 0 United States|xPolitics and government|y2001-2009. 651 0 United States|xPolitics and government|y2009- 651 0 United States|xEconomic policy. 655 7 Electronic books.|2local 710 2 OverDrive, Inc.,|edistributor. 856 40 |zAvailable on OverDrive/Libby|uhttps:// naperville.overdrive.com/media/AF8F019F-CDE5-4DFB-BE6D- C5BFBAFE910F 856 42 |zClick here to access excerpt|uhttps:// samples.overdrive.com/all-the-presidents-af8f01?.epub- sample.overdrive.com
