The information contained in this book contradicts nearly everything you've been led to believe about democracy and "representative government".
Based on the groundbreaking research of respected historian Carroll Quigley, Tragedy and Hope 101 reveals an unimaginably devious political system, skillfully manipulated by a handful of elite, which is undermining freedom and democracy as we know it. The goal of those who control the system, in Quigley's own words, is to dominate "all habitable portions of the world." Using deception, theft, and violence, they have achieved more toward this goal than any rulers in human history.
However, the Information Age is quickly derailing their plans. The immorality of their system, and those who serve it, has become nearly impossible to hide. Awareness and resistance are growing...tragedy is yielding to hope.

This work is eye opening and frustrating. Knowing myself, I doubt that I will go on to attempt Quigley's work, I think I get the gist. I've read and listened to several other books concerning the subjects upon which Quigley (and Plummer) sheds light. My priorities have changed - I am going to buy land in Texas and hole up the family to wait out the inevitable.
One last thing, the narrator, Joshua Mackey is okay (emphasis like the new AT&T commercials, where such and such is just okay). Mackey tries too hard in some places to emphasize certain words or phrases. Perhaps that won't bother most. I didn't care for it. In a lot of sections, especially toward the last chapters, he seemed to channel a 1930's gangster character, and expected him to start saying stuff like, "Alright, see, we're gonna knock off that bank, grab some chippies at the gin joint, and clip some G-men with our roscoes. By the time we end in the caboose, we'll be hittin' on all eight, see?"
It got annoying.
Great book. Great writer, So-so narrator.
But the meaning behind it all is very IMPORTANT - take the blue pill and learn what's going on, if it's not already too late.
Will you take the red pill or the blue pill?

I was hoping for something that was more of a history that tied into the Quigley book that I'll probably never read for several reasons. It's long. It's maybe dated. I've heard it doesn't have sources. And, there's only so much time for any given book.
In that way, this is an excellent listen. It's short and summarizes. However, to my knowledge, it mostly is not about the title that it seems to be about. "Tragedy and Hope 101" would suggest that this is the introduction to that book. While that's the case in the beginning, at least, it's hard to know how much of this is actually based on Quigley, and my guess is that it isn't much. I understand the original has a lot of history; but, this one talks about events well past the published date. Which are from the book and which are the author's take? I can't tell in this audio book. A wide guess is 1/4-3/4 is from Quigley and I lean towards 1/4 or less.
I would suggest the author use this as an introduction and do a 201, 301, etc. But, focus those 'on the book' and angles from it. I enjoyed this take as a very broad introduction. I learned a lot. I'm not clear who I learned it from and I can't confidently tell people - "Do you know Quigley's book discusses ______ 50+ years ago?"
It's fine to draw in other elements and sources. Note them. In an audiobook format, you must mention them. They do mention a few other sources, but it seems very clear to this layman that most of this is title is a history by Plummer in what he believes is the spirit of Quigley, with many other sources in mind and perhaps listed in the book version, but it is very hard for me to believe after spending even a minor amount of time on the topic that this is a definite T&H Book 101 entry level course. It is more a much wider take on a sliver of the topics that I imagine are in the giant original work. I think he should first be upfront about that and second consider more works that stick more to the source and back his title here.
In any case, this is a very well written title with a great narration. What you can take from it as sourced to T&H or Quigley... I'm not confident I can say.
Very good.... I want to suggest more
