Anti Semitic Book "Israels Ritualmord an den Völkern"
Anti Semitic, disgusting and provocative propaganda book "Israels Ritualmord an den Völkern" (in English "Israel's Ritual Murder of the Nations") by author Wilhelm Matthiessen. Printed by the very famous publishing house Ludendorffs Verlag in Munich in 1939. The well known WW1 heroic general Erich Ludendorff and his wife published many books and essays to prove that the world's problems were caused by Christianity, especially the Jesuits and Catholics, but also conspiracies by Jews and the Freemasons. They founded the Bund für Gotteserkenntnis (in German) (Society for the Knowledge of God), a small and rather obscure esoterical society of atheists that survives to this day. He launched several abusive attacks on his former superior Hindenburg for not having acted in a "nationalistic soldier-like fashion". By the time Hitler came to power, Ludendorff was no longer sympathetic to him. The Nazis distanced themselves from Ludendorff because of his eccentric conspiracy theories. Book. Paperback. 80 pages.
Condition: Slightly cracked margins, otherwise and overall good copy.
