Yes, very much so. It gives excellent insight of America from the late 1850s to 1912 and there is an extensive bibiography at the end of the book. Here is the forward to it. It was written about 40 years ago but gives so much insight in world events and above all human nature. Here is the forward to the book.

Foreword
This book is dedicated to the young people of America, who are rebelling because they know something is very wrong in their country, but do not know just what it is. I hope this book will help to enlighten them.
There is not, to my knowledge, any family like the "Armagh Family" in America, nor has there ever been, and all characters, except those obviously historical, are my own invention. However, the historical background and the political background of this novel are authentic. The "Committee of Foreign Studies" does indeed exist, today as of yesterday, and so does the "Scardo Society," but not by these names.
There is indeed a "plot against the people," and probably always will be, for government has always been hostile towards the governed. It is not a new story, and the conspirators and conspiracies have varied from era to era, depending on the political or economic situation in their various countries.
But it was not until the era of the League of Just Men and Karl Marx that conspirators and conspiracies became one, with one aim, one objective, and one determination. This has nothing to do with any "ideology" or form of government, or ideals or "materialism" or any other catch-phrases generously fed to the unthinking masses. It has absolutely nothing to do with what they call "such trivialities." They are also beyond good and evil. The Caesars they put into power are their creatures, whether they know it or not, and the peoples of all nations are helpless, whether they live in America, Europe, Russia, China, Africa, or South America. They will always be helpless until they are aware of their real enemy.
President John F. Kennedy knew what he was talking about when he spoke of "the Gnomes of Zurich." (1) Perhaps he knew too much! Coup d'etat are an old story, but they are now growing too numerous. This is probably the last hour for mankind as a rational species, before it becomes the slave of a "planned society." A bibliography ends this book, and I hope many of my readers will avail themselves of the facts. That is all the hope I have.

Sammielee, did you ever read Captains and the Kings by Taylor Caldwell?
i was once in a hallway and todd rundgren walked by.
he either said "hi" or nodded his head.
seemed like a nice fellow.. you can treat me like a regular person.. international.
im sure the question has been brought up before on this board and i imagine that for many of us the answer is patent.
however, i recently saw a documentary on pbs regarding the mormons and it stated categorically that the church of jesus christ of latter day saints is not a cult.
given that it has its own set of strangeness and history of revision as has the wtbts, could it also (the jw) be considered a main stream, although minor religion?.
Several years ago a poster did a great thread giving examples of the WTS's using Hassan's BITE model and WT references:

It's hard for me to pick from 3 of my favorites written and produced by Norman Lear: All in the Family, The Jeffersons and Sanford and Son.

have you ever noticed any bands/musical artists that overall you really just don't like, or even actively dislike/hate, but out of freaking nowhere they have this one song that is just so awesome it makes you wonder where in the hell they got it, and why they weren't able to go to that place again for equally good songs?
i have two personal examples:.
hotel california, the eagles.
I love the Eagles and Stevie Wonder. I like Superstition and this song
