Description
SometimeĀ in earlyĀ 1920,Ā autoĀ magnateĀ HenryĀ Ford-thenĀ one ofĀ theĀ richestĀ men inĀ theĀ world-decidedĀ to single-handedlyĀ takeĀ onĀ global Jewry.Ā ToĀ thatĀ end,Ā he initiatedĀ aĀ nearly two-year-longĀ attackĀ onĀ the JewsĀ andĀ the JewishĀ Lobby,Ā throughĀ hisĀ corporate-ownedĀ newspaper,Ā TheĀ DearbornĀ Independent.Ā HisĀ smallĀ journalistic team,Ā ledĀ byĀ ErnestĀ Liebold andĀ WilliamĀ Cameron,Ā craftedĀ aĀ stunningĀ seriesĀ of 87Ā weeklyĀ articles,Ā eachĀ one dissecting anĀ aspectĀ ofĀ “theĀ Jewish Question.”Ā The seriesĀ hasĀ beenĀ called “the largest andĀ mostĀ damagingĀ campaignĀ againstĀ JewsĀ ever waged inĀ the UnitedĀ States.”Ā It retainsĀ thisĀ honorificĀ title to the presentĀ day.
As theĀ seriesĀ progressed,Ā FordĀ elected toĀ publish theĀ articles inĀ bookĀ form:Ā in fourĀ volumes, eachĀ carryingĀ 20Ā articles.Ā Of necessity, heĀ bypassedĀ sevenĀ articles.Ā TheĀ volumesĀ alsoĀ alteredĀ theĀ originalĀ sequenceĀ ofĀ publication.
Here,Ā inĀ theĀ newĀ DefinitiveĀ Edition,Ā theĀ completeĀ Ford seriesĀ ofĀ 87 articlesĀ hasĀ been fully restored,Ā and inĀ chronologicalĀ order.Ā EditorĀ Thomas Dalton hasĀ produced aĀ clean, crispĀ editionĀ ofĀ theseĀ classicĀ essays,Ā correctingĀ typosĀ and grammatical errors whileĀ restoringĀ theĀ originalĀ newspaper sectionĀ headings.Ā HelpfulĀ footnotes haveĀ beenĀ added throughout.Ā AllĀ thisĀ makes forĀ aĀ highly-readableĀ edition.
Unsurprisingly,Ā TheĀ InternationalĀ JewĀ has neverĀ beenĀ given fairĀ treatment-untilĀ now.Ā Dalton’sĀ IntroductionĀ andĀ EpilogueĀ provideĀ aĀ fullĀ andĀ properĀ context;Ā nineĀ appendicesĀ fillĀ outĀ theĀ story;Ā and a bibliographyĀ andĀ indexĀ aidĀ scholars.
Though 100Ā yearsĀ old,Ā theseĀ essaysĀ are suffusedĀ with lessonsĀ forĀ theĀ presentĀ day.Ā TheĀ Jewish Question, itĀ seems,Ā is eternal.Ā Fortunately, Ford’sĀ classicĀ workĀ hasĀ finallyĀ beenĀ givenĀ theĀ careful,Ā sympathetic,Ā and professionalĀ treatmentĀ thatĀ itĀ hasĀ longĀ deserved.
