Book excerpt: Foreword: “With my this book, i furnish the most comprehensive description of my experiences which constituted the bases of the development in my mind of the concept reflecting the kind of secret societies termed by me ‘ethnical or national secret political organizations’, by this means making it explicit the phrase ‘my experiences and knowledge relative to the ethnical and the national secret political organizations’ used in my other books, when writing about the respective manifestations of those secret political organizations. I intend this book to be suitable for a human to acquire that concept in the relatively short time of studying it.” p { margin-bottom: 0.25cm; line-height: 120%; }
