None Dare Call it Conspiracy by: Gary Allen (1971)

None Dare Call It Conspiracy (1971) is a work in which Gary Allen presents a documented explanation of political and economic developments in the 20th century. The book compiles names, organizations, policy decisions, and historical events to show how a concentrated group of financial and institutional interests has shaped major outcomes in the United States and abroad. Allen’s material draws on congressional records, financial histories, public statements, and published government documents to outline connections among influential families, foundations, and international bodies.

Allen presents the Council on Foreign Relations, major philanthropic foundations, and global policy organizations as central points of influence. He details their members, publications, affiliations, and roles in government and business, emphasizing their involvement in shaping legislation, foreign relations, banking decisions, and long-term national policy. He maintains that leadership across both major political parties has been connected to these same institutions, resulting in continuity of direction regardless of administration.

The book organizes its information chronologically and structurally, presenting events such as banking reforms, political shifts, wars, and international agreements as linked through overlapping personnel and shared institutional goals. Allen’s purpose is to lay out factual material in a way that allows readers to follow the relationships, timelines, and documented actions that form the basis of his conclusions.

About the Author:
Gary Allen (1936–1986) was an American journalist, political commentator, and prolific writer known for his sharply anti-establishment, anti–big government perspective. He wrote for several conservative and libertarian publications, including The Review of the News and American Opinion, where he developed a reputation for his direct, uncompromising style. Allen was closely associated with the John Birch Society, serving as one of its most widely read spokespersons and contributing extensive investigative columns on foreign policy, banking, education, and government expansion.

Allen authored or co-authored more than a dozen books, many of which focus on global power structures and the influence of elite financial networks. His most widely known work, None Dare Call It Conspiracy, made him a prominent figure in early 1970s political discourse, selling millions of copies through grassroots distribution rather than mainstream channels. His writing consistently emphasized transparency in government, constitutional limits on power, and skepticism toward centralized authority—principles that defined his career.

Beyond his books, Allen was a frequent public speaker and radio guest, where he expanded on themes of government overreach, internationalism, and the erosion of individual liberties. His work resonated strongly with readers who felt traditional media failed to address hidden political influences. Until his death in 1986, Allen remained committed to exposing what he viewed as concealed mechanisms of political and economic control, positioning himself as a watchdog against the concentration of power in any form.
