This nonfiction book in graphic-novel style examines the outrageous fabrication of The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, which purports to be the blueprint by Jewish leaders to take over the world. Hatched as an anti-Semitic plot by the tsar's secret police to deflect widespread criticism of the Russian government, the forgery, first published in 1905, succeeded beyond the propagandistic ambitions of its originators; the lie became an internationally accepted truth. Presenting a pageant of historical figures including Tsar Nicholas II, Henry Ford, and Adolf Hitler, Eisner exposes the twisted history of the Protocols from nineteenth-century Russia to modern-day Klan members to Islamic fundamentalists. The Plot unravels one of the most devastating hoaxes of the twentieth century. 630 00 $a Protocols of the wise men of Zion. 650 0 $a Antisemitism. 700 1 $a Eco, Umberto. 800 1 $a Eisner, Will. $t Will Eisner library. 941 $a 1 952 $l XXPH787 $d 20181107050015.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=6B9E37C4B41E11E4B48B3FA5DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
