Welcome to redqueenwhitequeen.com.

'Red Queen White Queen; Who Killed the Archduke?' is a book in progress which is the result of over 10 years of research by its author, R. Eric Westfall.

The purpose of this website is to offer interested parties the opportunity to become directly involved in the 'Red Queen White Queen' project.  With a modest one-time subscription fee supporting members will be granted private access to a PDF file of the text of the book-in-progress as well as privileges to view and post on this site's private Comments section where members can enter into discussion amongst themselves and with the author relevant to the evolving book.  Fees and donations go exclusively toward supporting the author in his ongoing research and writing.

The book, in short, deals with four titanic forces which have shaped human history: the first two, what can only be described as two anscestrally divergent "camps" within the royal and noble circles of Europe and Britain over a long stretch of history, and which the author has determined were represented allegorically in Lewis Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland' in his characters the Red Queen and the White Queen.  These two "queens" have been at odds, behind the scenes if you will, for well over a millenium.  Third, the Roman Catholic Church which backed its own horse in the race (the "red" one), and fourth, a revolutionary concept proposed by a freemasonic Grand Master named Benjamin Franklin in the late 1760's that humankind was free and sovereign and embued with certain unalienable rights (an idea which both "queens", the red one in particular, thought absurd).

Following the American Revolution these forces battled it out over the next century and a half until the long struggle culminated in the murder of Franz Ferdinand the Archduke of Austro-Hungary in 1914, propelling the world to war with itself.

The stories of the people and events of 'Red Queen White Queen' reverberate unto our own time, and while the book is meant to be an entertaining "good-read", the reader will come away with "scales falling from their eyes", i.e. a completely new take on history, religion, and the world they live in.
