Proofs of a Conspiracy

Set against the backdrop of revolutionary France in 1797, the book explores the chaos and destruction that followed the fall of the monarchy. It questions whether the upheaval was a spontaneous event or the result of a calculated conspiracy orchestrated by secret societies like the Freemasons and Illuminati. John Robison, alarmed by his observations of these groups, aims to expose their influence and methods, providing a critique of their ideologies. Initially sensational, this work has remained influential as a pioneering analysis of conspiracy in historical events.
