Pale Horse Rider: William Cooper, the Rise of Conspiracy, and the Fall of Trust in America by Mark Jacobson

4.0

Pale Horse Rider (2018) by Mark Jacobson is a well written book & biography of the "Father" of the Truther movement Bill Cooper. Author Jacobson was able to mix in many of the social ills during the time of Coopers life to make for an interesting read. The book shows how Coopers life was flawed but when it came to his research and analysis he was on target. Highly recommended if you have an interest in the Truther movement...-BUT...I really think this is a 5 Star book...but...Jacobson kind of blew it in the very last paragraph stating "People call Cooper "the father of the Truth Movement," which now includes nutbag stories like Pizzagate..." -????!!!!! Mr. Jacobson, Where did this come from and why would you write such a viewpoint after completing this entire book??? I've researched Pizzagate, there's a lot behind it...it only slid away from the public eye due to the bogus Russiagate...but the main point to you is why are you scoffing at the harm to children? I thought this was a great book until the very end and the inclusion of that sentence...Sorry dude but you went from an excellent writer to an idiot in a heartbeat...
