A Study That Can't Be Ignored -- but the Kindle Version Needs Work
"Hitler's Willing Executioners" is without doubt a highly important work that no one wishing to understand 20th-century history can afford to ignore. In this review, however, I will focus on the Kindle version. The Kindle version has significant problems. First, ...
Memoirs of an Anti-Semite: A Novel in Five Stories (New York Review Books)
Gregor Von Rezzori
NYRB Classics
, 2007
One of the Best Books I Have Ever Read
This is one of the best books I have ever read. The writing style is brilliant. You feel like you are living side by side with the author, almost inside his skin, experiencing what he is experiencing, or perhaps at least you are an intimate friend, someone with whom he ...
Hitler: 1889-1936 Hubris
Ian Kershaw
W. W. Norton & Company
, 2000
Anticipating "what Hitler wanted"
This is a long and very detailed book. I knew it was not going to be easy reading when I started it. To my surprise, the first part of the book was quite compelling and not at all difficult to read. At about the halfway point of the book's nearly 600 pages of text, ...
How Jesus Became Christian
Barrie Wilson
St. Martin's Press
, 2008
Another nail in the coffin
For 25 years the Ebionite Jewish Movement has been teaching that Christianity is not the religion of 'Jesus' nor has it represented him in any way; that Paul of Tarsus was, to put it nicely, a liar--in fact, The Liar and very possibly the anti-christ referred to in the ...

Good information ~very readable!
This book was very comprehensive and also very readable. This was not a boring textbook at all. Many of the reading helped me to see things in a different light.

James Carroll
Mariner Books
, 2001
2000 years of western history
To understand the history of western civilization it is imperative to understand the catholic church in particular, and christianity in general. For a basic understanding of these underpinnings of the western world, this book is a must. Whether you agree or not with ...
Beyond Chutzpah: On the Misuse of Anti-Semitism and the Abuse of History
Norman G. Finkelstein
University of California Press
, 2008
An essay about the truth
The book is a classic and I will not discuss it further. I will add that Finkelstein is a martyr for the truth. His courageous exposure of Zionist and Israeli attempts to manipulate the truth and deny it has cost him dear. He got fired from his academic position ...
The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism: From Sacred Texts to Solemn History
Prometheus Books
, 2008
The Legacy of Islamic Antisemitism: From Sacred Texts to Solemn History
Excellent. Not a beach book. Leaves no doubt that mainstream Islam is a bloodthirsty, oppressive religion.
Our Hands Are Stained with Blood
Michael L. Brown
Destiny Image Publishers
, 1992
The tragic story of the Church and the Jewish people.
This excellent book, which desperately needed to be written, is devoted primarily to the tragic relationship between the Christian Church and the Jewish people. The writer strives to impart to Christians the recognition of their legacy & heritage from the Jews that ...
Why the Jews? The Reason for Antisemitism
Dennis Prager
,
Joseph Telushkin
Touchstone
, 2003
Lucid well-argued analysis
I have encountered Rabbi Telushkin's work before and in this (revised) text he agian brings tremendous clarity to his message. Never strident, never unkind that book is fair and balanced. The authors stand their theses on historical reactions to Jews aas a nation, as ...
The Changing Face of Anti-Semitism: From Ancient Times to the Present Day
Walter Laqueur
Oxford University Press, USA
, 2008
Best book on Anti-Semitism
As I see it, Laqueur's book has advantages over the many other works on the same subject: 1) The author has a sure footing in two millennia of European history. Here and there I found myself in disagreement on matters of fact and interpretation. I looked these ...
Hitler: 1936-1945: Nemesis
Ian Kershaw
W. W. Norton & Company
, 2001
"Working Towards the Fuhrer"
How could a racial crank with no education rule Germany so effectively for years? If he was an evil genius, Why did he then fail, stupidly leading it into a second war and eventual defeat? Kershaw's answer is the Nazi phrase, "working towards the Fuhrer". When Hitler ...
