My Book Review of The Creature from Jekyll Island

My Book Review of 'The Creature from Jekyll Island'

Writer: G. Edward Griffin

The Federal Reserve System, the 'Fed' was conceived during a very secret meeting among an 'elite' group of men, on the island named 'Jekyll', off the coast of Georgia, in 1910. 

          Book cover

Mr Griffin analyzes the development of the Federal Reserve System. 

Also, he completes extensive research on the negative effect of the 'Fed' on our economy.  

The 'secret' meeting was held with six very important/elite men.  

Based on Mr Griffin's calculations, the six men held 1/4 of the entire world's wealth at that time. 

The men held interests of the following wealthy families of:

Rockefeller's, 

Morgan's, 

Rothschild's, and 

Warburg's; who met with the Republican Senator of 

Mr Nelson Aldrich at the Island.  

Mr Griffin takes the reader through a well organized journey; with 26 insightful chapters. 

The most interesting part of the book, in my opinion was, section II. 

This section presents a lengthy look at the monetary system, the gold based currency and finally the fiat currency. 

Mr Griffin presents a pessimistic view of USA with the 'Fed' and gives clear insight into abolishing this organization. 

In many areas of the book, Mr Griffin offers specific reasons why the 'Fed' should be abolished.  He gives the reader evidence and researched proof to back his claims.  

In conclusion, The book 'The Creature from Jekyll Island' is an interesting, easy read, that will intrigue all readers.  I did enjoy the detailed journey through the monetary system of the world and USA. 

I believe everyone should make time to read this educational and insightful book. 

Thank you for reading,
