The Rothschild family - anti-Semitic publication - limited edition. France, 1896


Les Rothschild UNE FAMILLE de financiers juifs au XIX SIECLE - The Rothschild family, a Jewish financial family in the 19th century. Anti-Semitic publication against the Rothschild family and the Jewish financial control in France, by the French journalist Demachy Edouard. Paris, 1896 - limited edition of 1100 numbered copies. Copy numbered 1022.


A particularly venomous anti-Semitic publication dealing with the unlimited control of the Rothschild family in France. In the long introduction, the author describes how the most powerful centers in France are in the hands of the Rothschild family - the press is controlled by the family through its connections with the newspaper managers, the railroads in France are owned by the Rothschild family and it charges high interest for them, they control the central bank of France, they control the system French law, that's why they always win the lawsuits filed against them. Throughout the venomous introduction, he repeats and warns of the unacceptable situation in his opinion, that a Jewish financial family controls France: "The Rothschild family has no homeland and its presence in France is a danger to everyone. The French aristocracy has become a slave to the Rothschild family... For nearly a century, the Rothschilds have been robbing France", he writes. The author-journalist even claims that the Rothschild family did everything to prevent the publication of his book, including through legal processes, so he published it in a limited edition, because the family has control over all the bookstores, so in any case he gave up trying to sell them in the usual way. "If I hadn't written this book, someone else would have done it in my place. The Rothschilds have finished their time, they are at the top of the mountain they climbed with pain, and they are giddy at the sight of the terrible cliff they are about to be thrown...", he writes. (The author also writes against Baron Hirsch, who in his opinion took over the French earldom through his connections and money). 

To prove his claims the author uses transcripts of many documents dealing with the Rothschild family from the French National Archives, the archives of the French police, letters sent between French tycoons, "mysterious" letters from various sources, documents of the Christian Church and more, from which he tries to make the reader understand the cunning of The family, its unlimited control, how they know how to eliminate any opposition to them, and tries to convince the reader that it is time to put an end to the French control of the Rothschilds.
