I'm glad I snatched up this book before it became hundreds of dollars on eBay. This book, while somewhat dry and hard to get through in places, traces the history of the US and its two main influences - the Christian roots in the form of the Puritans and the occult roots in the form of the Masons/Illuminists. While this information can be found in many places, I have not found it so succinctly stated all in one place. If you can get your hands on this book and want to see what all the All Seeing Eye hype is about, this is a good primer.
