Bowen was one of the first authors, along with historian John Loftus, to reveal how the Bush economic empire received a major boost in the pre-World War Two period with loans from banker Prescott Bush, grandfather of the current officeholder, to Adolf Hitler. This valuable money enabled the Nazi dictator to gain more pig iron and develop his weapons potential.
A former intelligence operative himself, the knowledgeable Bowen traces Bush I's links as CIA Director to drug activity, culminating with his bombing of Panama and the civilian casualties that resulted. Bowen exposes the fraudulent claims of Bush to "get Noriega" after the CIA Director had used the Panamanian dictator as a valuable intelligence source.
The claim that George I was a self-made man in the West Texas oil business is also exposed as a sham by Bowen. The public relations myth perpetrated by Bush cronies was that the Ivy Leaguer drove into West Texas in a dusty old jalopy and, through proper application, made a fortune. In reality he flew into West Texas in his father's private jet and used contacts to achieve a fortune. He emerged as a man of privilege from the beginning who used patrimonious affirmative action to gain fame and fortune. He emerges, as humorist Jim Hightower quipped, as "a man who was born on third base and believed he had hit a triple."
Bowen displays prescience in dealing with the Bush sons in one perceptive chapter. He links all of them to shady dealings and corporate corruption, notably George II and his swift bailout before the roof fell on Harken Energy Corporation, the oil company he headed. His father, then president, squelched the investigation into Bush II's Harken activities.
Godfather George and Real Politiks.......2003-09-12
Russell Bowen more than rips the lid off the public image carefully cultivated by Bush, Inc. exposing the dark side of not just American politics but its international tentacles stretching into every country where American business/government conducts its business with a plethora of American paid for and sponsored dictators.
Gore Vidal has written that the American Republic ended in July 1947 with the signing, and creation, of the national security state vis-avis the founding of the CIA. For George Herbert Walker Bush, the national security state always existed.
Bowen traces the history of the Bush crime family interweaving the story of the family with the politics of the nation and the high flying deals which enriched the family. Bowen documents not just the Machiavellian work of Bush the elder, but the sins of the sons, Neil, Jeb and Dubya. Admitting to his own work under orders from Bush the elder, he asks the following questions:
Where was George?
1. When, during World War II, his shipmates were drowning after the bomber plane Bush was piloting was shot down?
2. When the Bay of Pigs was planned?
3. When John F. Kennedy was assassinated?
4. When presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy was assassinated?
5. When Martin Luther King was assassinated?
6. When a "deal" was made to hold the Iran hostages until the inauguration of Reagan?
7. When Ronald Reagan was nearly assassinated in Washington by a known Bush family associate?
8. When the truth about this association with Iraq should have been made clear to the American people?
I found many parts of this book to be fascinating, I became intrigued with Bowen's revelations of the business dealings between the grandfather of W.S.Farish. According to Bowen, Farish was the inheritor of the Auschwitz deaht camp fortune. In 1980, Bush designated Farish as manager of his vast wealth deposited in a "blind trust." Bush knew he could trust Farish to keep the family secrets as Farish's money was made from the same Nazi enterprise as Bush's father Prescott.
According to Bowen, "Farish's grandfather, W.S.Farish, pleaded, "no contest" to charges of criminal conspiracy with the Nazis. As president and chief executive of Standard Oil of New Jersey, Farish was the controller of the global cartel between Standard Oil and the German I.G.Farben concern. The joint enterprise had opened the Auschwitz slave labor amp on June 14, 1940, to produce artificial rubber and gasoline from coal. Jews and other political opponents supplied by Hitler as slaves were worked to death or murdered. Senator Harry S. Truman headed a Senate committee investigating the corporations' collaboration with the Nazis. Farish was brought before the committee to answer questions concerning his company's alliance with the Hitler regime that had begun with his presidency of Jersey Standard in 1933. Before Farish testified, Truman told newsmen, "I think this approaches treason."
In an era of literary mediocrity, Bowen has written and published a work documenting the misdeeds and illegalities of a family some consider the Republican Kennedys. Fast forwarding to today, the son, Dubya, is covered with the same crown of thorns befitting Bush the Elder. Bowen proves that information is power so read and consider the information contained in this volume.
The Farish affair is but one of a plethora of similar incidents documented in Bowen's book establishing a pattern of treasonous, illegal and immoral conduct by the Bushes using their position as public officials imbued with a public trust for their own benefit.

The Immaculate Deception
Iain Pears Manufacturer: Scribner ProductGroup: Book Binding: Hardcover Similar Items:
ASIN: 0743212576 |
Book Description
From the acclaimed author of An Instance of the Fingerpost ("may well be the best 'historical mystery' ever written," said The Boston Globe) comes a luminous new Jonathan Argyll/Flavia di Stefano crime novel set against the richly evocative backdrop of Rome and Tuscany.
In his first new novel since An Instance of the Fingerpost became an international bestseller, Iain Pears transports us to Rome, where an impudent thief has stolen a politically sensitive painting on loan from a foreign museum.
Summoned to see the prime minister, Flavia di Stefano, acting head of Italy's Art Theft Squad, is told to retrieve the painting without publicity or payment of ransom. But does the prime minister mean what he says? And why was this particular painting stolen? Faced with a case sure to cause her grief, Flavia turns to her mentor, General Taddeo Bottando, who has a wholly unexpected view of the situation.
Flavia's husband of four weeks, art historian Jonathan Argyll, is busy, meanwhile, with a mission of his own. As a gift to the soon-to-retire Bottando, Jonathan will track down the provenance of a small Renaissance painting, an Immaculate Conception, now hanging on Bottando's wall. Who owned the painting over the years, and how did it come into Bottando's hands?
Flavia's search for an art thief soon becomes a hunt for a killer, while Jonathan's probe uncovers some startling secrets and an unlikely alliance as poignant as it is surprising. Absorbing, witty, ingeniously plotted, The Immaculate Deception is stylish entertainment from a justly celebrated author.

"From internationally bestselling author Iain Pears comes the seventh in his Jonathan Argyll series -- an intriguing mystery of love, loss, and artistic license. For newlywed and Italian art theft squad head Flavia di Stefano, the honeymoon is over when a painting, borrowed from the Louvre and en route to a celebratory exhibition, is stolen. Desperate to avoid public embarrassment -- and to avoid paying a ransom -- the Italian prime minister leans hard on Flavia to get it back quickly and quietly. Across town, her husband, art historian Jonathan Argyll, begins an investigation of his own, tracing the past of a small Renaissance painting -- an Immaculate Conception -- owned by Flavia's mentor, retired general Taddeo Bottando. Soon both husband and wife uncover astonishing and chilling secrets, and Flavia's investigation takes a sudden turn from the search for an art thief to the hunt for a murderer. "Customer Reviews:

This particular volume takes a turn when it appears that Flavia's boss, General Bottando, may be involved in the latest art crime swindle himself. The book is not predictable and keeps you guessing and is very enjoyable if not as spellbindingly clever as 'An Instance of The Fingerpost'. Well worth as read.
