Описание: Louise Jordan Miln (1864-1933) was an American stage actress and writer, born in Macomb, Illinois, who moved to Chicago with her parents aged five. She had a close bond with her father and as a child travelled with him in the US and abroad. At 18 she took up acting and began an affair with married English actor George Crichton Miln. A sensational divorce case ensued in 1888, by which time Louise already had the first of her many children with Miln. The couple soon married and travelled to Australia where George tried to find acting work whilst Louise was tied down by her fast-growing family. They later acquired some income from her father's estate and travelled to the Far East, performing plays and experiencing different cultures. Her first book, When We Were Strolling Players in the East (1894) gives an account of those travels and was closely followed by Quaint Korea (1895). In 1896 the Milns moved to London and bought a monthly magazine which George edited. Louise contributed many articles to this and other periodicals and published further non-fiction works. Her literary career really took off a few years after her husband's death in 1917 when she turned to novel writing. Mostly romances set in China, her books were widely praised especially for their appreciation of the Orient and insight into the Chinese mind. This novel was first published in 1923.

Описание: Anyone with even a passing interest in conspiracy has heard claims that a powerful elite controls both the economies and the politics of the West. Just as surely, almost everyone who has heard these claims has ignored them-the notion of a "secret hand" in world affairs is just too fantastic to believe. Yet, in 2008, the world witnessed a meltdown in world finances. By capitalist rules "he who takes the risk earns the reward," but that is not how things occurred. The entire financial sector which had engaged in extreme risk for profit and lost, balked at the prospect of bankruptcy and exercised a hitherto unknown option (to the average western citizen at least) and socialized their losses, transferring them to the public ledger. This is not capitalism. If we are not in a capitalist system, what kind of system has developed? Perhaps we should examine the claims that there exists a "New World Order" in more detail and try once and for all to establish whether it really does exist. The present work examines the origin of World War I, the seminal event of the Twentieth Century and the event that "made" the New World Order under the leadership of Lord Milner. Lord Milner was an international banker and he worked closely with J. P. Morgan in the USA and Lord Rothschild and other bankers in the City of London. The central thesis of "Lord Milner's Second War" is that Lord Milner arranged for Britain to participate in the War. Cecil Rhodes, the great British Imperialist, wanted to establish a world state through the British Empire. He set up his secret society to achieve that goal and he groomed Lord Milner to succeed him. Milner started the South African War (the Boer War) to seize control of South Africa and its huge gold deposits. He pioneered the use of concentration camps to wage war on the civilian population. Twenty-seven-thousand Boer women and children perished in Milner's camps-far more than the casualties of all combatants. Having hoisted the British flag on all of South Africa, Milner set his sights on the ultimate prize-a great war that would crush Russia and Germany and leave his banking allies free to dominate world finances. The present work suggests that the Foreign Secretary, Sir Edward Grey, The Secretary of War, Richard Haldane and the British Director of Military Operations, General Sir Henry Wilson forged the military arrangements with France that led Britain to war. But two of these men, Grey and Haldane, belonged to the Rhodes-Milner secret society, and the third, General Wilson, was a close associate of Lord Milner. "Lord Milner's Second War" outlines how this secret society directed British foreign policy to fomenting a European conflict. With patience and skill, Foreign Secretary Grey convinced France and Russia of Britain's genuine commitment to taking part in a European war. As a result, France and Russia became more aggressive in the Balkans. With the rise of President Poincar of France, Sir Edward Grey at last had a French partner who unequivocally wanted war. Allied to Russian Ambassador Izvolsky, Poincar and Grey arranged for Europe to plunge into the 1914-18 catastrophe. The First World War did not go as planned, but Milner won in the end with a lot of help from the American banking cartel, which arranged the extraordinary intervention of America. The Milner Group came out of World War I as the most powerful organization in the West. They had a major influence in starting World War II and they emerged from that war stronger than ever. After the Second World War, headquarters moved permanently to New York. Gradually the organization transformed itself into the New World Order and Bilderberg Group of the present. The New World Order is about to create a cashless society, the penultimate step to ushering in the absolute surveillance exercised by Orwell's "Big Brother." "Lord Milner's Second War" has one purpose: to argue for the existence of the Milner Group and to introduce you to your
