Summary: If you don't have it, buy it!!
Comment: The detailed research was clearly evident from start to finish, shedding light on what was considered a "taboo" topic. The mystique of Skull & Bones has been uncovered, and done in such a thorough manner, with few questions left in the reader's mind. How could someone not appreciate the efforts of Ms. Robbins to bring such a subject under the microscope?

Summary: Stash of Secrets of the Skull & Bones Alexander Robins
Comment: I thought Secrets of the Tomb Skull and Bones, The Ivy League, And the Hidden Paths of Power.
was excellent. The president and his father are both members of Skull and Bones and so is Senator John Kerry who will run against George W. Bush in 2004 are all so called "Bonesmen". The author Alexandra Robbins writing style is incredibly smooth and the fact that she mentions that she is a member of "one of Skull and Bones kindred Yale secret societies" only makes it more fascinating. This is an enjoyable mystery within a mystery of a mysterious book.That is part of what makes it even more interesting The book it self is mysterious looking with a wild picture of "The Tomb" and the creepy but aesthetic skull and Bones symbol with the 322 draws the reader in. There are a lot of photos I've never seen before in this book. The reader will get a vivid picture of how the Society system works. This is a part of American culture that needed to be discussed not just through rumor. You also get a tour of the "Tomb" and the private island owned by Bones all as bizarre as the recent movie Skulls. In an interesting chapter on the initiation ritual the author takes inside this ritual but makes it interesting and yet manages clear up some of the rumors that surround it's secrecy. You get I think a real taste for what these initiates went through. It's funny to think of the president and his son and fellows Bill Buckley going through this ritual. The Networking of the Order is the who's who of the elite's and a must read for those who like to study how power structure works. In fact if you read The Wise Men Six friends and the world they made by Isaacon and Thomas you'll remember they mention Skull & Bones briefly but prominently in this mammoth work about the diplomats men of Wall street true insiders several of them were indeed Skull and Bones directly influenced the post WWII world. Secrets of the Tomb revels that connections still exist today. I charters of this are a who's who of the powerful. If you liked that movie the Skulls or even Harry Potter or even Rushmore or your an avid listener of Cost to Cost radio you'll love Secrets of the Tomb. I think even the most paranoid reader or conspiracy theorist will find the wealth of fasinating information within. It a wilderness of mirrors this Skull in Bones. Read about Skull and Bones the most infamous of all the Secret Societies.

Summary: Long Island Review
Comment: Alexandra Robbins does an incredible job of bringing a topic that has been formerly taboo to light. It's amazing to be able to take a peek into a world that the majority of us have never, and will never, be privy to. The power that these secret societies have over our society is more phenominal then I would have ever even begun to imagine. This book is a must read. It mixes light anecdotes with some rather heavy information about the politics of our government. It will definately make you think twice about who exactly IS running our government, and how exactly did they get there?
