"Tragedy And Hope A History Of The World In Our Time - Ch.15: Part 3b" read by John Lothe www.johnlothe.wordpress.com/ www.youtube.com/user/JohnLothe Tragedy and Hope: A History of the World in Our Time is a work of history written by former Georgetown University professor, mentor of Bill Clinton, and historian, Carroll Quigley. The book covers the period of roughly 1880 to 1963 and is multidisciplinary in nature though perhaps focusing on the economic problems brought about by the First World War and the impact these had on subsequent events. While global in scope, the book focuses on Western civilization. It is written from a Eurocentric perspective. The book has attracted the attention of those interested in geopolitics due to Quigley's assertion that a secret society initially led by Cecil Rhodes, Alfred Milner and others had considerable influence over British and American foreign policy in the first half of the twentieth century. From 1909 to 1913, Milner organized the outer ring of this society as the semi-secret Round Table groups.[1] The book is written based on archived files from the Council on Foreign Relations en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tragedy_and_Hope Audio taken from: https://youtu.be/tWtXGQY92Cs
