About The Book

Secrets, betrayal, and hidden histories: the untold story of the Knights of the Golden Circle and the men who tried to shape the Civil War from the shadows.

An exposé on the influential members of the Knights of the Golden Circle (K.G.C.), the secretive and treasonous society that fueled the American Civil War.

A follow-up to the highly acclaimed The Knights of the Golden Circle in Texas, this book uncovers even more conspirators and provides in-depth biographical details on those involved. It includes previously unpublished material on the lost years of George W. Bickley—often mistakenly credited as the organization’s founder—as well as new revelations about the role played by a member of his own Bickley family.
