Secrets of the Tomb by Alexandra Robbins

Book Description

The Ivy League is full of societies and clubs, some public and some very private. But none is as secret as Yale's Skull and Bones, a tiny, mysterious society that has somehow spawned three U.S. presidents, including William Howard Taft, George W. Bush, and his father. 

Skull and Bones' cloak-and-dagger secrecy has prompted people worldwide to attribute to it some of the most staggering conspiracies in modern history-as well as events including the drop of the atom bomb, the rise of Hitler, and the invasion of the Bay of Pigs. 

From their nearly windowless crypt in the middle of the Yale campus, the Bonesmen, it is said, plot to dominate the world.

In SECRETS OF THE TOMB, acclaimed journalist Alexandra Robbins slips through the veil of secrecy to investigate, through society documents and interviews with dozens of members, the truth about Skull and Bones' influence and operations. 

She also explains why this old-boy 19th-century throwback, a product of another time, still thrives in 21st-century America.

Sure to cause a major media sensation, SECRETS OF THE TOMB will lift the curtain on this Ivy League Oz.
