Author Description

They secretly meet for seventeen days each July at a place called the Bohemian Grove, a remote forest of ancient redwood trees in the deep Northern California woods. Some 1,500 in number, their membership rolls include current and former U.S. Presidents, heavy-hitting corporate chieftains, and high government officials. Mingling among them are a number of Hollywood movie stars, Broadway producers, famous musicians, authors, painters and poets. These are America's most powerful men. The celebrity names you'd easily recognize, but chances are you've never heard of the Bohemian Club. For most the club's long history, the public could only speculate as to what these men were doing behind closed doors. Now the truth can finally be revealed. Mike Hanson is a first-hand eyewitness who has been inside the Bohemian Grove, and successfully emerged with the first video evidence ever brought out of the power elite's exclusive compound. He peers behind the deep, green foliage and twisted vines, and the moss-covered brown limbs and trunks of ancient, gnarled trees to discover what really goes on inside. On this, the 130-year anniversary of the founding of the Bohemian Club, Bohemian Grove: Cult of Conspiracy promises to uncover the Grove's hidden history and expose the secrets of the redwoods.
