The Bloody Story of Anti-Semitism Down the Ages

In 1947, when this pamphlet was written, the ghastly memory of the Holocaust was fresh in the public mind. The author explores this climatic catastrophe of racial persecution to reveal it not as an anomalous occurrence, but rather as the evidence of a form of institutionalized prejudice which had operated for more than a millennium. “Humanity,” McCabe argues, “will enter into full and friendly cooperation only when the myths disappear and pure humanism is the base of man’s standard of conduct.”The original full title of this pamphlet was: “The Bloody Story of Anti-Semitism Down the Ages: A Few Friendly Counsels of a Freethinker to the Members of our Three Great Religions”
