Young George IV En Regalia
 

 

Now that in parts six, seven and eight we have an adequate time line of Reynolds’ career we can get down into the substance of his major works, Mysteries of London and Mysteries of the Court of London.  For those not aware of the extent of his corpus, it is immense with about all of it written concurrently with his two major novels.

For instance, in the four years from 1844 to 1848 when the four series of Mysteries of London were written, George also wrote Faust:  A Romance of the Secret Tribunals in 1847; Wagner, the Wehrwolf in 1846-47; The Mysteries of Old London: Days of Hogarth in 1847-48 and The Coral Island or, The Hereditary Curse in 1848 as he ended Mysteries of London and began Mysteries of the Court at the same time.  All of these are significant works are of some length.

Also, in 1846, he began to publish his magazine, The Reynolds Miscellany which he edited.  While I have not received the copies yet, Gyan Publishers of India offers ten volumes of the Miscellany in five volumes of about eight hundred pages each.  I will browse them when they arrive.

Altogether this seems to be a heavy writing load, an impossible load.  Yet when one examines Reynolds’ working methods and his careful time management it may have been easily done by him given his large mind.  Certainly the load from 1844 to 1848 was, for him, light.  He was responsible for turning in eight double column pages, minus illustrations a week.

As his mind could apparently be rigidly compartmentalized; as he is said to have written very fast, then his actual work period turning out eight thousand words could be easily done in, say, six hours.  He had to keep his whole story in mind for each sequent but, as I imagine, as he turned in an installment his mind, or part of it, immediately began plotting out the next installment so that when his next deadline approached he had the eight thousand words ready and could just spill them out.  So, his whole work week by which he sustained his whole extensive family was only six hours long.

The rest of the seven days could be devoted to family matters, exploring the metropolis and reading.  George read and studied.  His Greek mythology was correct and extensive, and he drops classical references regularly.  Oddly he makes few Biblical references.  He very obviously was familiar with the British, French and German literature of the day.  He was definitely literate in English and French and probably could read German.  He takes his inspiration from where he can get it.  Could there be any coincidence that the William Harrison Ainsworth depiction of the Gypsy camp in Rookwood is reflected in Reynolds’ passages of Gypsy camps in Mysteries of London?  I think not.

As I am discovering, not many people are aware of W.H. Ainsworth.  He seems to be virtually unknown, but then, so does Reynolds.  Ainsworth was a very successful and influential author of the day turning out perhaps more books than Reynolds while being a major influence on Reynolds.  Very good books, too, well worth reading.  

While I had read Ainsworth’s name being frequently mentioned I had never read him until just recently.  I was fortunate to pick up various sets of novelists of this period at an online auction for next to nothing.  Ainsworth was one of the sets.  While the books were nearly free, about a dollar each, the shipping from Topeka Kansas was horrendous.  So, while I have some reading of the period, I can now immerse myself.

By the way, I have been familiar with the French writers for some time and more recently the German authors while an ardent admirer of ETA Hoffman for a couple decades.  While it is clear that George read French with ease, it seems probable that he could wade through German texts also.  So, what he did with a full week’s time is of interest.

The Beau

 

Obviously, one thing, was how to become his own publisher.  In 1846 only two years into Mysteries of London he obviously understood enough about publishing to launch his successful Miscellany at which time he began his ancillary novels to fill its pages.  The first issue began with his Wagner, the Wehr Wolf.  Undoubtedly the other three novels also appeared in its pages.  I will find out soon.

Now, the two major works are immense.  I have now read each twice.  The first time I caught the most exciting highlights.  The second time I penetrated the depth but the stories are so long and diverse a third and fourth reading would be necessary to organize all the characters and incidents.  Actually both works are several novels in one.  The stories are braided in such a way that that one story branches out replaced by another related story then rejoining further downstream.  Each story could be abstracted and edited into a complete novel with certain characters interchangeably distributed throughout.  Thus the story in the first series of Mysteries of the Court of Tim Meagles and Lady Diana Lade is completed and finished with Tim and Diana eased out of the rest of the novel.

The question in that instance is who was Tim Meagles in real life.  I believe he was none other than the Beau himself, Beau Brummell.  As Mysteries of the Court is a story of the Regency of George VI and as the Beau had the same relationship with the Prince as Meagles, the two must be related as no other than the Beau had so close a relationship with the Regent.

As my authority for the history of Beau Brummell I use the biography of Capt. Jesse, titled Beau Brummell.  The Capt. Published in 1844 and he is speaking first hand while having had an acquaintance with Beau in his exile in France.  My edition is from a set called Beaux and Belles of England published probably in the 1890s by the Grolier Society of London, a veritable treasure trove of biographies of the era.

The Beau, a Dandy and Beau, is an example of a social species with a long history in England and indeed probably going back in the annals of time to the transformation of the human species from the anthropoids.  It is certain that there were cavemen who wore their pelts better than others and perhaps bathed more regularly.  The advent of Mr. Gillette being well in the future.  The Beau himself was fastidious, apparently unlike his contemporaries as his fastidiousness is mentioned as exceptional.  Make your own judgment.

Brummel who was named George as apparently were half the male members of England at the time, was the son of a wealthy merchant thus inheriting thirty thousand pounds on his father’s death or however long it took to get out chancery.  Beau, surveying the social scene determined that the only society worth having was that of the aristocrats.  Having money but no title he did not qualify for their company so the Beau became the Beau, the trendsetter of male fashion and thus gained acceptability.

He also developed into a master snob and as such rose to prominence or, at least, notoriety.  His notoriety attracted the attention of the Prince, that is, George IV, later the Regent and then the King in his own right.  There is a remarkable resemblance between the two.  I post pictures.  From these it appears that the two might almost have had the same father.  At any rate, Prince and Beau become bonded, much like Meagles and the Prince.  Remember that George IV in his own persona is the main character in the story.  The Prince then resided in his mansion, Carlton House, on Pall Mall.  Let me interject that there is an excellent survey of the Capital titled London by Charles Knight in six lengthy volumes, Cambridge University Press, containing wonderful historical essays on most of the locations mentioned by George- that is, Reynolds.  The six volumes were originally issued in parts ending in 1844,  One can sharpen one’s understanding.

But, George- that is Brummel- was terribly irked by his inferior position to George- that is the Prince and so he became demeaning and superior, ridiculing George IV in conversations with others so that the Prince, George, became infuriated and broke off relations with George, the Beau.  The crowning touch came when he and a fellow ran into the Prince while walking.  The Prince studiously ignored the Beau addressing only his friend causing Brummell to caustically remark:  Who’s your fat friend?  Well, come now.  Completely in disfavor now the Beau deteriorated and as a relatively young man was forced into exile in Calais, France.  This previous history is all that concerns us in his characterization in Tim Meagle.

Meagles’ story was written a while after Dumas’ very famous The Three Musketeers was published.  The Three Musketeers is a fabulous myth.  A wonderful creation of the equally fabulous Alexander Dumas.  In Meagles and his companion Lady Diana Lade it appears that Reynolds is trying to create a myth to equal the Musketeers and female character, Milady.  Indeed, there are such similarities that Reynolds may have considered himself a rival to the great Frenchman.

Read what Andre Maurois has to say in his biography of the three Dumas titled The Titans of 1957, pp. 182-83:

Quote:

Never in the whole course of French literature has there been anything comparable to Dumas’s output between the years 1845 and 1855.  Novels from eight to ten volumes showered down without a break on the newspapers and bookshops.  The whole history of France was passed in review.  The Three Musketeers was followed by Twenty Years After and that by Vicomte de Bragelone, another trilogy- Chicot the Jester (La Reine Margot), La dame de Monsoreau and The Forty-Five Guardsmen.

Simultaneously with these, Dumas was busy narrating the decline and fall of the French monarchy—The Diamond Necklace…Le Chevalier de Maison Rouge, Memoires of a Physician…Ange Pitou and La Comtesse de Charny.  From early on he had planned to annex the whole of history to his romantic domain.  “There is no end to what I want to do,” he said.  ‘I long for the impossible.  How am I to achieve what I have in mind?  By working as no one has ever worked before, by pruning life of all its details; by doing without sleep…’  This programme accounts for the five or six hundred volumes which so astonish the reader…. No one has read all Dumas.

Unquote.

Compare Reynolds and his output from 1844 to 1859.  He too wished to write the history of all Europe.  When Maurois mentions the five or six hundred volumes he means, I imagine, parts.  Thus if Reynolds is broken into parts he can account for three or four hundred volumes.  The eight or ten volumes of Mysteries of the Court of London can be broken down to eight or ten complete novels all interrelated.  Truly the period from about 1840 to 1880 is the height of British and European literature.

Reynolds changes the character of Meagles from Brummell’s own.  The Beau according to Capt. Jesse was quite effeminate.  Indeed, he never married and apparently had no female lovers.  Meagles and Lady Lade seem to have had a platonic relationship until her husband died.  They extorted a Marquisate from George III and then as the Beau had disappeared from England they disappear from The Mysteries of the Court.

Indeed, the Beau must have been trying to inveigle his friend, George IV, into making him a Marquis or ennoblement of some kind.  Had Brummel been ennobled then he would have been entitled to associate with the aristocracy instead of being a hanger on.

Lady Lade throughout her and Meagles’ episodes dresses in men’s clothing so that she and Meagles appear as two men to the unobservant.  As her name Diana indicates she represents the virgin huntress Artemis in Greek mythology or Diana in the Latin; the female archetype of the Piscean Age in Northern Europe.  Reynolds repeatedly refers to her as the Huntress and other attributes of Diana, Tim must therefore be meant to be the male archetype of Pisces in Reynolds’ mind, not as the Redeemer but perhaps as the Trickster.

Just as the Beau longs for a title so does Tim.  While the Beau retreated ungratified Tim and Lady Diana Lade obtain their Marquisate by criminal or blackmail means.  Without going into details here, Tim and Diana have knowledge that would compromise the reputation of the Georgian House.  Using this knowledge then they criminally extort their Marquisate from George III.

To some extent then, Mysteries of the Court is a roman a clef.  How many of the other novels in the Mysteries of the Court collection may reference actual histories remains to be addressed.

The main theme is a condemnation of the Regent, George IV.  Reynolds detests him as well as the whole aristocracy to the maximum.  But, how much of that detestation is sheer envy.  How much of himself did Reynolds put into Meagles/Brummell?  Reynolds himself has the appearance of a Dandy or Beau and Ainsworth definitely was one.  He is so vehement one has to wonder about his accuracy.  Is this a fictional history of reality or mere raving.  It is apparently reasonably accurate.  Capt. Jesse who wrote of Beau Brummell while a stalwart member of his class condemns George IV for, as he puts it, teaching the aristocracy to live beyond their incomes, squandering their great wealth frivolously while living the lives of Libertines.

Reynolds then has the spirit of the times correct and while he may perhaps exaggerate he is not false.  He himself believes he is writing fictionalized history; that is, fleshing out the fact with probable detailing.

Thus, in what might be termed the fifth and sixth series of the extended Mysteries of London and the Court, although these two series are not related to the first four, the fifth series concerns itself with the years around 1795 leading to the marriage of George IV with the Princess Caroline.  The key point being his previous secret marriage to Mrs. Fitzherbert.

Reynolds does not tackle his main theme directly but embeds it in a series of stories, or novellas, or novels, peripheral to it while creating a sociological portrait of the times making George’s character confirmed by external events.

Mrs. Fitzherbert had ruled Carlton House and the Prince, as George then was, before the Regency, and enjoyed great privileges.  The crisis came when George’s father, demanded that George marry the German Princess Caroline of Hanover, Germany who was something of a rustic.  That meant he had to put away Mrs. Fitzherbert whom he found compatible and take up with Caroline who he detested.

He tolerated her long enough to create an heir, the Princess Charlotte and then made Caroline’s life miserable so that she exiled herself to the Continent.  In Reynolds’ story, sixth series, she is living in Switzerland twenty years later.  As this is 1815 Napoleon has just returned from his exile on Elba to Paris.

Reynolds is a clear writer and as his title indicates he is essentially writing a mystery he reveals clues only as necessary.  The sixth series, then, titled Venetia Trelawney tells of Mrs. Fitzherbert’s attempt to regain her position at court through a surrogate, Venetia.

We are not permitted to know this until at the conclusion of the series of book five.  Apart from all the subsidiary stories the main burden of the sixth series is George IV’s machinations to injure his wife, Caroline.  He attempts to portray her as dissolute and morally corrupt for consorting with her equerry, Bergami. he was a fine figure of a man.

To achieve this goal the Prince, now Regent, goes to great lengths in a more or less improbable scheme.  A Mrs. Owen has four lovely daughters who, following the Prince’s instructions, she is turning into courtesans and mistresses of duplicity.  The youngest, Mary, refuses the training but the other three go to Geneva to be ladies in waiting for Caroline.  There by subterfuge they make it appear that Caroline and Bergami are having an affair.  Needless to say the scheme is baffled through the agency of Mrs. Fitzherbert.

That’s the general plan but of course much excitement is created by circumambient subplots that are braided into the main story.  Many interesting characters are created.  Larry Sampson, the Bow Street detective and his adversary the Hangman, Daniel Coffin.  Coffin comes close to being as interesting as the Resurrection Man of the first two series of the Mysteries of London.  Doctor Death of the third and fourth series doesn’t come close to the above two as a villain. Coffin is more related to the eighteenth century criminal master mind Johnathan Wild or Conan Doyle’s fictional Moriarty.

Of the six series the third and fourth are the weakest although having brilliant moments and a very good temptress, Laura Lorne.  That will be dealt with separately.  Having discussed the main story of The Mysteries Of London is the first eight parts of Time Travels there is no need to do so here.

When George closed off the second series of The Mysteries of the Court he said that he was through with George IV but that his head was bursting with ideas for a new series.  Now a mystery ensues.

My edition of Mysteries of the Court was published by the Francis F. Burton Ethnographical Society in Boston and an Oxford Society in England in twenty volumes c. 1900 under the general title The Works of George W.M. Reynolds.  By works is meant twenty volumes of The Mysteries of the Court of London, that’s all.  Thus, the set is divided into four units of five volumes.  The first five deal with the coming marriage to Caroline, the second five to Venetia Trelawney and the plot against Caroline.  Then a third set issued under Reynolds’ name with his picture on the title page under the title, Lady Saxondale’s Crimes, while the fourth division of five volumes is called The Fortunes of the Ashtons.  Thus, if the last two divisions are authentic the total work would be ten thousand pages.  However there is no mention of the latter two series by any Reynolds scholar.  Neither the Oxford Society nor the Burton Ethnographical Society give any indication of the provenance of the latter two series.

Richard F. Burton is the famous Victorian explorer, most notably in the search for the source of the Nile, and being the first European to penetrate into Mecca.  He translated the entire Arabian Nights in seventeen volumes.  So he became among the first ethnographers.  The Oxford Society was also an ethnographical society.  Little can be found on either on the internet. 

Burton established his Society in 1843 splitting off from a predecessor.  One wonders if Reynolds, ever curious, associated himself with the Burton Society and perhaps its predecessor.  His Mysteries of the Court of London may be construed as an ethnographical study.  I certainly read it as such.  Possibly the Oxford and Burton Societies found the Mysteries of the Court so suitable that they commissioned writers to write the two additional series. 

It might be possible that Reynolds commissioned the two series but there appears to be no earlier record of them at this tim, indeed, no record but their publication in the Works of George W.M. Reynolds.  There is a story worth investigating in the American publishing house, T.B. Peterson.  They were responsible for the publication of several novels written by their stable of authors under Reynold’s name.  There is information on T.B. Peterson on the internet.

The firm was located in Philadelphia.  They had a huge catalog what literature is in the Penny Dreadful style including a large selection of titles from writers like W.H. Ainsworth, Bulwer Lytton and, of course George W.M. Reynolds.  They published a two volume edition under the title of The Mysteries of the Court of London.  I have no idea whether it included the whole of the two series or a condensed version.  They published twenty, perhaps more titles written by their authors under Reynolds’ name, including Ciprina or, The Secrets of the Picture Gallery.

This volume has actually been issued by the British Library as an authentic Reynolds.  Possibly T.B. Peterson is unknown to them.  Lord Saxondale, who was apparently a little less criminal than his wife Lady Saxondale, Count Christobal, and Lucrizia Mirano, Edgar Montrose or, the Mysterious Penitent,  the Ruined Gangster.  Peterson really liked The Necromancer while that title was also published by a New York firm.

Anent the Necromancer.  I am of the opinion that this book was also not written by Reynolds, or possibly with a collaborator, even though it was published in his Miscellany in 1851.  The style isn’t his, the vocabulary isn’t his while in my reading I had the feeling that the book was written by a woman.  The detailing just seemed feminine.  I think it probable that Reynolds was following in the footsteps of his model Alexander Dumas.  Dumas collaborated with Auguste Maquet and others although the books were always issued as Dumas alone.

Perhaps in this case, Peterson called the Necromancer, the Mysteries of the Court of Henry VIII, Reynolds roughed out the story while employing someone else to do the actual writing.  At any rate, I do not believe he was the writer or perhaps the sole writer.

Needless to say, Reynolds received no economic benefit because the US did not honor English copyright laws.  Nor could Reynolds do anything about the counterfeits written under his name.

So, then, the question is from whence came the final two series and at what date were they written?  And perhaps, why?  Certainly they were commissioned.  Having never read them I am unqualified to speculate but, perhaps, someone might know and be willing to share their knowledge?

Reynolds began the two works in 1844 and so far as we know finished them in 1856.  Eighteen fifty-six was three short years before Darwin changed the world by issuing The Origin of Species and making evolution a household word.

By 1856 when the last word of the Mysteries was written Reynolds was already living in the Brave New England whether he knew it or not, and I suspect that he did know.  Being wide awake was a new term at the time but I suspect that Reynolds was wide awake.  The very face of England was changing as well as tunnels under the Thames.  The tunnel probably cost several times what a bridge would have cost and have been more useful.

While writing mysteries of the Court Reynolds turned out twenty other volumes many of great length.  Perhaps in the mode of Dumas he was making the maximum use of his time working long and sleeping little.  Or, perhaps, as he was accused by Dickens, of employing other writers. Reynolds denies it.

Around him a new crop of novelists were rising, each having become aware of different times and formed by different social conditions.  I suspect that although Reynolds remained a best seller throughout the century he became a little old fashioned.  Certainly his newspaper kept his name alive and before the public.  His politics would always have been ‘avant garde’ although by the turn of the century most of the Chartist demands had been met.  The triumph of the Revolution still lay ahead a few years.

Pt. VIII:  Time Traveling With R.E. Prindle

A Dialogue Between George Reynolds and John Dicks with asides from R.E. Prindle.

 

Let us imagine George Reynolds and John Dicks sitting over lunch and a nice glass of Lafite, as George spelled it, reminiscing in early 1860 about the good old days.  At this point in time George had ended, or was about to, his novelistic career.  He would now devote himself to journalistic matters with his very successful newspaper and magazine.  John Dicks who began his association with George in late 1847 had run a tight printing shop always keeping up with developments in printing.  An employee of George at this time he will soon be made a full partner and go on to an illustrious later career of publishing cheap literary editions for the masses.

Merely getting by back in ’47 they are now well-to-do men with money in the bank and more rolling in with every publication.  They have every reason to think well of themselves.

John asks George how he came up with the idea or the first two Mysteries of London series about the Markham Brothers and the astonishing Resurrection Man.

 

George:  That’s kind of an interesting story John.  As you know my last couple of books, damn good books too, had flopped.  My whole early career was kind of a waste.  My apprenticeship one might call it.   Personally I thought the Steam Packet and Master Timothy’s Bookcase were great, but, the fickle public, you know…

There I was approaching thirty supporting my family with odd jobs,  looking desperately into the future with great fear, a failure without an idea, when George Stiff approached me and said he had a novel idea, serial, that he was calling the Mysteries of London, same general notion as Eugene Sue’s Mysteries of Paris.  There was also another Mysteres de Londres by this other French fellow by the name of Paul Feval who had actually published his Mysteres de Londres that was alright.  I had this notion of two brothers who chose different paths in life, Richard Markham, virtue, and his brother Eugene, vice.

John:  Did that have anything to do with Ainsworth’s two brothers in Rookwood?

George:  I remembered that and then there’s Cain and Able of course and Romulus and Remus of Rome but, more importantly I could never get De Sade’s two novels Justine and Juliette out of my mind with De Sade’s notions about the rewards of virtue and vice.  So, I changed the sexes to men and reversed the roles and made virtuous Richard more successful than vicious Eugene.  I think I’m right too.

John:  Did Eugene have any reference to Sue, his first name?

George:  Probably.  A little joke.  I leaned pretty heavily on Sue during my career.  A lot more from his Wandering Jew than The Mysteres de Paris, and then his later work.  Sue just died you know, young man.  Worked himself to death.  Terrific prolific writer.  I borrowed a lot but don’t lets talk about that.

John:  I hadn’t heard about Sue’s death.  Interesting fellow.  You didn’t by any chance use him as a model for the Marquis of Holmesford in the second series of Mysteries of London by any chance did you George?             

George:  You got that, did you John?

John:  I know your devious mind, George.  I remembered how fascinated you were that Sue kept a harem of women of many different nationalities and races in his castle.  Then when Holmesford did the same thing I did associate the two.  Of course you made Holmesford an old man for your literary purposes but the similarities were there.

George:  The truth is stranger than fiction, John  but fiction makes it more interesting.  Do you know that many of those women were actually Sue’s slave girls?  He owned them.

John:  No, I didn’t know that.  Most of them were white women, how could he own those?  Where did he buy them?

George:  Slavery hasn’t disappeared John, it’s true that we English outlawed the African slave trade back in ’02 or whenever but slavery is still going strong in America and the Brazils and the middle East.  That fellow Livingston reports that the barbaric Arab slave trade from East Africa to the Middle East is tremendous.

The Ottomans control the Balkans and parts of the Caucasus so that slave marts selling whites is still Strong.  Samuel Baker, the fellow that is organizing his African expedition actually bought his wife in Hungary at a slave mart in Budapest.  Wonderful story.  So, there were many sources for Sue to buy his women.  Of course, I put in a sly joke with Holmesford  in which, rather than die in bed, he struggles to his feet to stagger to the arms of his favorite and dies on her capacious bosom.

Everyone takes a negative view of it when it’s supposed to be a tender moment if humorous.  Good way to die don’t you think John?  Hated to see Sue die, there goes my inspiration.  Dumas’ still alive but my intuition tells me he’s finished.  Boy, what productively, exhausted his brain.  I’m learning how that feels.

John:  You mean the inspiration of the Mysteries series with Sue?

George:  No.  That was Stiff.  Right before my nose but I couldn’t see it.  Once I got into it though and finished with George IV, I borrowed his stuff for things like Joseph Wilmot, Mary Price and that sort of thing, his Matilda, or The Misfortunes Of Virtue for instance.  You can see the de Sade reference. Sue plotted out the stories for me,  I mean I used them,  something like Maquet did for Dumas.  And then I rewrote them according to my own sensibilities.

Back to Stiff.  Nobody had any idea of how astonishingly successful the Mysteries would be.  I wasn’t even sure I wanted to do it, but Stiff promised a five quid note a week and always came through.  Two hundred sixty quid a year.  This seemed like a good deal to me for only a few thousand words a week. Coupled with what I could make on the side.  I had a of words in me and they were free to me.  Of course, as I came to realize I was making him a heck of a lot more than I was getting.  The end result was that he bought himself a damn good income and lifestyle for next to nothing.  Look how we’re living.

By the time I got into the second series though, I began to think that there’s something wrong here.  If my writing could make their fortunes, my writing could do a lot better for me, I thought.

In ’46 then, still under contract for Mysteries, I began my Reynold’s Miscellany that has been fairly successful as you know.  Somehow that brought us together.  I realized your genius from the beginning—no, no, I’m serious John, no need for false modesty with me, your integrity, the whole works.  So, when the second series was coming to the end, and the expiration of my contract, I had worked up the general outline for the George IV fifth and sixth series so were we’re ready to go as soon as I turned in my last clip to Stiff and refused to sign a new contract.

John:  They weren’t too happy with that, were they?

George:  I should think not.  Of course, I had foolishly talked about the George IV series, so they thought they were going to have that too.  That would have put them on Easy Street with me getting five pounds a week.  They owned the rights to the Mysteries of London, lock, stock and copyright. Owned the title.  If Stiff could have found a writer the Mysteries might have gone on forever.

Finding another writer wasn’t that easy.  They should have come to terms with me and shared the income more equitably but, as they said, a contract is a contract.  They apparently didn’t understand that contracts are written with a fixed term.  They got lucky with me but although I think Tom Miller who they signed next is a fine person and a very adequate writer neither he nor Blanchard who succeeded him understood the audience.  I, in association with you John, continued the success.

John:  Stiff and Vickers came unglued then in ’48 and forced you into bankruptcy proceedings?

George:  Damn ‘em.  That was more Vickers who lost a lot of printing business so the clod uses my name to try to make up for my loss.  Attacked the Miscellany, putting out a vile rag called the Reynolds something or other because he had some obscure typesetter with the name of Reynolds.  Got his though.  I know how they got me into that bankruptcy mess.  I only owed two thousand and by ’48 that was nothing what with the Miscellany and the beginning of George IV.  We were already bringing in that much each month.  Vickers was just being vicious, humiliated me and got nothing out of it.  Hope the villain is happy and rots in hell.

But that was then and this is now.  Look where Vickers is at and look where we’re at.

John:  I think your politics had something to do with that too, George.  Remember what year that was?  ’48?  Ring any bells?

George:  (laughing immoderately)  I thought that Revolution of ’48 was the real thing; an ’89 that worked.  Was I ever wrong.  Marx put that manifesto out in ’47, alerting the reactionaries as to what was coming and were they ever ready for us.  We were all riddled with spies.  Put the government is a tizzie though.  A little better leadership and it might have been done.  I wasn’t keen on the Communist stuff though.  Our Chartist idea was the best.  No violence.

John:  I was always of the opinion that revolutions mean violence.  Anyway, they smashed the revolution and the revolutionaries scattered like leaves in the wind.  Hope the Americans know what to do with them because they got a lot and the worst of them.

I always wondered, George, to change the subject a bit, of all your characters which was your favorite?

George:  The Resurrection Man of course.  Boy, did he really come from the depths of my subconscious.  Terrified myself more than he did my readers.  You know something though, John?  I think I had stumbled on to something but I didn’t know what to do with it.

John:  What might that have been?

George:  Remember Larry Sampson the leading detective of the Bow Street Runners?  And the hangman, Daniel Coffin?

John:  Yes.  That was strong, very effective.  But…?

George:  Better than strong, John.  I don’t know if you’ve read this American Edgar Allen Poe, he’s dead now, tragic story, collapsed and died on the streets of Baltimore.  Tragic death, tragic.  Great artist.  He wrote a story called The Murders In The Rue Morgue.  Wonderful imaginative tale.  He has an intellectual sort of detective, C. August Dupin.  Initials spell CAD.  Good joke, what?  Poe was very intellectual keen on acumen.  He thought he was a genius, probably was.  Dupin solves the crime in the Rue Morgue, an impossible closed door mystery, sitting in his armchair.  Acumen you see.  I appreciated the acumen but I thought a true detective would keep records and biographies and with the information would be able to lead him more quickly and accurately to probable perpetrators.  Thus, I introduced Lawrence ‘Larry’ Sampson of the Metropolitan Police, chief of the Bow Street Runners.

John:  Your old friend Paul Feval has written a book, John Devil, in which he introduces  a master detective from Scotland Yard by the name of Gregory Temple.  Have you read that?

George:  No, not yet.  Have you read any of Feval’s Black Coat series?  The crime network he portrays reminds me of our Johnathan Wild who had criminal London pretty well organized in the last century.  Wild in turn reminds of Vidocq, the head of the Paris Surete.  Francois Vidocq, who died a couple years ago by the way.  Vidocq was a nasty criminal and obviously the greatest of con men.  Imagine hiring a master criminal to be he head of police!  There was a scandal.  Just like Wild he was amazingly able to recover stolen goods without having to arrest a thief?  Same routine Wild was running.  The thieves stole and got a commission from the money Wild received for returning the stolen merchandise.

 

Prindle:  Reynolds was of course right that the detective novel would become, or perhaps, was already becoming at the time he wrote a new genre.  For the origin of the detective story most people nominate Poe and then trace it through a series of French writers leading up to Emile Gaboriau who has supposed to have been the inspiration for Conan Doyle’s great Sherlock Holmes and Doctor Watson.  From there it was off to the races.

Reynolds seems to have been overlooked as an early source.  I’m sure that Doyle would have read Mysteries of the Court and have noted Sampson.  Doyle used both acumen and a thorough record system.  It can’t be proven, of course, but Reynolds was a staple for nineteenth century proto-pulp fiction, especially before the adventure novel of the Rider Haggard type and the detective stories of Conan Doyle and his epigone.

Certainly, during Doyle’s boyhood and youth Reynolds would have been essential reading along with W.H. Ainsworth, Bulwer Lytton and James Malcom Rymer.  These writers were very popular throughout the nineteenth century while becoming passe at the beginning of WWI.  They were old fashioned and didn’t fit into the post-war world.  Thus they dropped out of literary history, if the Penny Dreadful, pulp writers, were ever a part of it.  Back to George and John.

 

George:  Speaking of criminals, that reminds me of those criminal Americans who respect no writer’s rights.  It’s bad enough that they pirate my own works but they have the audacity to hire writers and then publish their stuff under my own name.

John: (laughing)  You must be very popular in the United State.

George:  I should hope so and maybe you laugh.  Maybe I could sue over appropriating my name but I don’t think there’s a chance of success.

It’s not just a book either, listen to these titles:  Ciprina or, the Secrets of the Picture Gallery, Lord Saxondale, Count Christoval, Lucrigia Marano, The Child of Waterloo or, the Horrors of the Battle Field. And there are more.  I must be an entire industry over there.  There might be dozens more under my name.  People must think I’m a super-man, turning out not only my own works but these other people under my name.  My god, don’t they have sense of decency?  What’s a poor writer to do?

John:  Speaking of that, I’m thinking of beginning a series called Dicks’ English Novels.  I’ll have twenty or so of your novels plus your favorites by Dickens, Ainsworth, Bulwer-Lytton along with your favorites Notre Dame de Paris and Dumas’ Queen Margot.  All your major influences except Byron.  What do you think?

George:  Any money in it?

John:  Should be.  All of it’s still popular and we’ll get it out at prices that will shock the industry.

George:  Interesting.  That sounds very good John and I’m sure that it will be a great success.  We’ve worked together for ten years or more now, and a very successful partnership it’s been.  Now that I’m about finished as a novelist and going to work for the newspaper perhaps with your plans we should make our relationship a full partnership.  Does that sound feasible to you John?

John:  Very satisfactory George.  It would make me proud.  Together I think we can make John Dicks the most successful publishing house in England while educating those the most that afford it the least.  We can change the face of England and make it a better place.  I want to get the prices down as low as possible.  Without the paper tax we should be able to cut costs.

George:  If you get the type any smaller John and keep our readership you may obtain both goals.  I don’t know how those type setters can set such small type.

John:  Quite a skill, I can assure you.  I’d like to be able to invent a type setting machine where there are keys for the alphabet and punctuation marks so that the type setter can punch keys and the letters fall into place.

George:  I’m sure someone is working on it.  The steam press itself is a modern miracle.  It would be impossible to get out the tens of thousands of papers and books we get out every week without them.

John:  Yes.  We’d be making a lot less money than we are now anyway.  Quite a machine.  By the way, George, I’ve got a suggestion.

George:  Yes…

John:  Well, as you know the government’s pretty unhappy with the Miscellany.

George:  Yes…

John:  It think we could get rid of some pressure by discontinuing it.

George: (unhappy but aware of the problem)   Discontinuing the Reynolds Miscellany?

John:  Not exactly getting rid of it but changing the name anyway.  I’ve got an idea for a magazine I’d call Bow Bells.  We could fold the Miscellany into it, under my editorship.  It would be the same program but a little less…uh…er…aggressive, to keep the hounds off us.  Doesn’t have to be done right now but something to think about, maybe.  I’d really like to do it George.  They haven’t forgotten ’48.  That still rankles them.

George:  How would that affect the newspaper?

John:  Not at all, not at all.   That would continue under your editorship and I would edit the combined Bow Bells and Miscellany.  Just a thought.  We can keep it in the back our minds  I’ve got some newer writers in mind.

George:  Hmm, newer writers.  I know your concern, John, and it is something to consider.  I’ll consider it.  I am getting pretty tired and fourteen years of turning out a zillion words a week has taken its toll.  My brain doesn’t have the elasticity and vitality that it used to have.  You see, I know how Dumas feels.  Things don’t come as easily anymore.  That would be a load off me.  Let me think about it.

John:  Let me say that I really admire your energy George.  The ten years or so I’ve been working with you have been amazing.  I wish we had The Mysteries of London from Stiff and Vickers.  What a catalog that would make; Mysteries of London and Mysteries of the Court.  I’d even throw in Mysteries of Old London, the Days of Hogarth.  Underappreciated but it has one of the greatest tales I have ever read.  My land, what an outstanding three works.

George:  Oh, flattery…flattery.  Keep it up. (laughing)

John:  Just the truth, George, just the truth.

WWII:  The Greatest Crime Of The Ages

R.E. Prindle

German Must Perish! and The War Goal of World Plutocracy by Theodore Kaufman and Wolfgang Dieverge,  reprint of the two 1941 editions by Ostara Publications, no date.

The history of the Second World War of 1939-45 is not as the orthodox version describes.  That history has been molded and shaped to conform with the desires of some interested parties.  In other words, it has been falsified.  The skewed history is more than merely one of interpretation.  Whole swaths of incidents have been suppressed, obscured or forced into a false narrative.  While your attention has been directed to a certain narrative, the real story lies exposed like geological strata.

I offer concrete undeniable facts to bring your attention to what was really going on.  The demonstration will focus on a book published in 1941 by one Theodore Nathan Kaufman.  Kaufman was an operative of the American Jewish Committee, the AJC.  For those not familiar with the AJC it is the directing governmental body of Jews in the United States.  It is essentially an espionage unit spying on the American people dedicated to rooting out what they are pleased to call ‘anti-Semites.’  They were also behind the effort to lead the United States into the war with Germany.  Their whole goal was to destroy Germany physically and to commit the genocide of 80 million Germans.

I know you are shocked and in total belief that 80 million people could be murdered but you shouldn’t be.  After all, the Chinese autocrat Mao Ze Dong murdered thirty million or more of his fellow Chinese and the world said nothing.  Not that much of stretch from 30 to 80 million.

Consider the facts: In 1933 the AJC executive, lawyer Samuel Untermyer declared irrevocable hatred of the Germans and war on the Germans.  Then began a whole series of boycotts and sanctions against Germany from the United States, a nominally neutral country by law.  This was done by its newly elected Democratic president Franklin Delano Roosevelt, FDR.  FDR as he is familiarly known was in the pocket of the Jewish governing body, the American Jewish Committee.

There were six key nations fighting this proposed war:  England, Russia, France, Germany, the United States and the Jewish Nation, the last spread out through Europe and the Americas.  The Jewish Nation was very carefully screened so that there would be minimal appearance of their maximum role.  They made themselves appear innocent victims while they stoked the fires of war.

We should be clear: there was no chance that Germany could win the war and this was against the combined might of the Soviet Union in the East and the United States to Germany’s West.  Zero chance and this was recognized by the warmakers at the time.

We now get to Theodore Kaufman.  Remember as he was writing his screed it was acknowledged that Germany could not win the war.  At the time Germany Must Perish, Kaufman’s book, was published England, France and the USSR were one block.  Germany Must Perish was published in March of 1941 before Germany had invaded the USSR and nine months before the US declared war on Germany.  So neither the US or USSR was at war with Germany of the time of publication.  Yet Kaufman was calling for the extermination of the Germany.  By whom then?

The agitation for US entry was conducted by England, Roosevelt and the American Jewish people.  England because it could not defend itself after being the first people to declare war on Germany in 1939.  England, because the country could not defend itself needed the US to fight the war for them.  England had neither the men nor the resources to even think of getting into the war on its own.

The Jewish Nation because the Jews wanted the whole German nation exterminated.  Kaufman explains:

Quote:

Today’s war is not a war against Hitler.  Nor is it a war against the Nazis.  It is a war of peoples against peoples….  This war is being waged by the German people.  It is they who are responsible.  It is they who must be made to pay for the war.

Unquote.

Remember that in 1933 the Jews declared war on Germany with no response from Germany.

So then, who is this Theodore Nathan Kaufman?

He was an AJC operative.  He is portrayed in the US as an insignificant shopkeeper from the Jewish colony of Newark, New Jersey.  A mere voice in the wilderness, perhaps a crazy Jewish prophet.  But, as a crazy Jewish prophet he publishes from the remote Newark Jewish colony a screed like Germany Must Perish calling for their total erasure from the Earth.  This book was not ignored, instead it was given maximum countrywide attention.  No such crank would have had access to the President of the United States but Kaufman did, no penniless shop keeper from Newark can launch a multi-million dollar campaign to publicize his book.  That just doesn’t happen.  He was a member of the AJC and the AJC was spending millions and millions on espionage, publishing books by the score while Jewish attorneys were filing lawsuits on every side.

Now, these deeds, these books, these acts have at the very least been disregarded or obscured, if it were possible to erase such a public campaign all evidence would have been scrubbed.  But, Kaufman and his book are inescapable evidence, not only fact, but concrete evidence of the activities of this Jewish Nation to draw the US and its resources into their, not the US’s, but their fight against the German people.  The war was between the Jewish Nation and the German Nation with the Jews as the aggressors.

The American People had no dog in this war but the Jewish People as Kaufman said, did.  What dog did Roosevelt have in the fight?  Why was he anxious to sacrifice the lives of tens of thousands of men in the prime of their lives?  Why was he so willing to strip America of its tremendous resources to badger a country that was no threat to the US?  Forget all that today Europe, tomorrow the world stuff.  Even if the Germans fancied it, had they conquered the whole of Europe including the Soviet Union, they would have been exhausted and unable to keep what they had.  That’s right, the Germans would never have been a threat to the US.

The Soviet Union unaided and without immense US supplies would have defeated Germany, it might have taken longer but as Stalin knew when he declared:  God is on the side of the big battalions.  Germany could not have won the war.  FDR certainly knew this.  Why was he subservient to the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics? No contradiction there.  Because he was a socialist if not a Communist.  His old World War I master, Woodrow Wilson was a socialist.  FDR’s administration was a continuation of Wilson’s.  FDR even faked the League of Nation under the name of the United Nations through thus completing Wilson’s heritage.

Ah, I hear voices saying, you can’t genocide eighty million people.  The AJC and Kaufman thought you could.  It was simple.  You’ve heard of Eugenics haven’t you?  Of course you have.  Kaufman’s plan was simple.  You simply sterilize all Germans of child bearing age and children.  As Kaufman said, who was probably frightened by the word castration, sterilization doesn’t mean castration.  Sterilization for men is a simple operation, a little more complex for women.  I see no reason to examine the techniques of such a plan but if you have seen pictures of Germany bombed flat, Germans carving dwellings out the ruins,  ‘honorable allied soldiers’, American soldiers, turning German women into prostitutes with Hershey bars, you will realize how easy it would have been.  The plan only lacked will and it became within an ace of happening.  By Americans.

The Jews of course were ready.  The hitch came when Americans, less the Jews, were horrified at the notion.  The plan had the tentative backing of FDR and it was only his death on the eve of the end of the war that blocked the plan.

If we remember Kaufman’s book was published in 1941 before Germany had invaded the Soviet Union or the US had entered the war.  Kaufman’s was a pre-emptive plan.  Thus the representatives of the Jewish Nation had the system of genocide in place, Total War, before the Final Solution of the German Jewish problem was put into effect.

The Germans naturally were aware of Kaufman’s book shortly after publication, so it follows that the Final Solution was a variant of what Kaufman called the Total Solution of the Jewish Nation’s German problem.  Therefore, much of the Final Solution is mitigated by the Total Solution.

As to whether the whole Jewish People was responsible, Kaufman said that this was a war between peoples—the Jewish Nation versus the German Nation.  The Jews initiated its Total War, the desired end of which would be the total extermination, genocide, of the German People, that is a holocaust.  So, how can the German People be found guilty of attempting the genocide of the Jewish People except as an act of self-defense?  The slaughter was of course terrible, but so was the murderous war against Germany.  And that war was conducted with the full overwhelming power of the USSR and the USA against them.  Fleets of nightly bombers from the West and relentless artillery barrages from the East.  Germany had no chance of winning such a war; its doom was clear.

In March-April of 1941, then, the Germans learned of the Jewish menace.  They were horrified.  Copyright laws prevented the book from being published in Germany.  For whatever reason the law abiding Germans honored the copyright law.  The Germans were sticklers for the law and thus observed it refusing to print the book and alerting the German People of this threat from the Jewish People.  This side of story has never been told.

However, the Germans did print reviews of the book using extensive quotations which were ‘legal’ under copyright laws. A pamphlet was published by the German government titled The War Goal of World Plutocracy  by one Wolfgang Diewerge.

What Dieverge called the World Plutocracy meant the Jewish led coalition against Germany.  The title failed to indicate the urgency of the real issue, that of the declared war of the Jewish Nation against the German Nation.  Perhaps the Germans meant to implicate England, the US and Russia as well as the Jews which was a mistake.  Four nations were involved but only three countries.

There is more than one legal system with its laws and customs involved here.  On has the English and American variations of the Common Law, Soviet law, German law and Jewish law.  Today all countries are using a variant of Jewish law.  Under Jewish law the defendant is considered guilty and can only mitigate the charges.  Thus we have the situation in the US today of the Judeo-Liberal party that alleges that the accused is guilty, or he or she wouldn’t be accused would they?  Thus, the crime can only be resolved by accepting the guilt of being ‘wrong’ and accepting the judgment of the Party.  Bear in mind that in this so-called democracy the Jewish-Liberal party isn’t even the majority.  They are a minority that has appropriated the government regardless of who is president.  Thus, it is false to think we live in a democracy when we live in a Jewish flavored theocracy.

2.

Given that the Jews can manage the writing of history and the dissemination on knowledge and control discussion of the narrative it should come as no surprise that the German side of the story is suppressed.  The narrative is cast in the form of The Children Of Light vs. The Children Of Darkness.  All right then resides with the former and all fault with the latter.

As it is clear that the Jews first broached the notion of genocide when they were managing the overwhelming power of the US and USSR it follows that to avoid a German holocaust that the Germans were justified in a pre-emptive Jewish holocaust.  Both holocausts were to be managed in a scientific manner.  Thus, the Germans have no more cause for guilt than the Jews.

As might be supposed, since the plan for German genocide was trumpeted loudly throughout America, free copies were sent to influential people, Time-Magazine gave an approving review, newspapers nationwide disseminated the plan in an approving manner.  It should have been one of those things read with incredulity.

At the time the America First Committee was lobbying very actively, very actively, to prevent the US from entering another European war.  The American public was decidedly against any involvement in the war.  In March of ’41 a war with Japan seemed a remote possibility.  Roosevelt touted democracy and freedom yet he disregarded the vast majority and put US soldiers on the front lines both in the Pacific and the Atlantic.

And then we have a Jewish appeal for a German holocaust.  Without the US having yet no sinews of war, no will to war, what were the Jews thinking in making such a strange proclamation?  As Charles Lindbergh pointed out in his Des Moines speech, the Jews were finagling the US into a criminal war against Germany.  Forget any notion of a good war.

The Germans quickly obtained copies of the book or pamphlet that had been distributed to millions in the US with a copy sent free to every influential American.  The Germans were aghast.  Had the death of eighty million people ever been proclaimed before?  By a nation that refused to call itself that publicly?  Pretending to be Englishmen, Frenchmen, Russians, Americans, whatever.  The disguise was total and the danger was real.

The Jewish government presented Kaufman as an anonymous loner, something like Lee Harvey Oswald who may have fired at President Kennedy.  But was he? He was no fanatic rejected by World Jewry, no insane creature, but rather a leading and widely known Jewish figure in the United States.

The Germans published their answer to Kaufman in a pamphlet by Wolfgang Diewerge titled The War Goal of World Plutocracy.  He did a little research and came up with this:

Quote:

The Jewish president Kaufman is no anonymous loner, no fanatic rejected by World Jewry, no insane creature but rather a leader and widely-known Jewish figure in the United States.

Unquote:

Diewerge then says that Kaufman was a member of Roosevelt’s Brain Trust.  I’ve never read that before but then one can’t be sure that orthodox histories are ‘definitive.’  Diewerge goes on:

Quote:

He belongs to Roosevelt’s so-called “Brain Trust”, the staff of intellectuals and political advisors to the American President.  This circle provides the material for the hateful speeches against National Socialist Germany that President Roosevelt like to give…

The half-Jewish mayor (mother was Jewish) of New York, La Guardia, along with Roosevelt’s close confidante and friend, Bernard Baruch (“the unofficial president of the USA) also belongs to this group, which maintains closest ties to the leading men of the Soviet Union.

Unquote.

Baruch wasn’t so much a confidante and friend of FDR as a Grey Eminence giving direction to FDR.  As the war progressed and Kaufman’s proposal was tentatively accepted by Roosevelt, Kaufman’s plan was adapted by Secretary of the Treasury, the Jew Henry Morgenthau Jr. who did bill himself co-president with FDR.  Thus while Baruch was actually co-president with Woodrow Wilson during WWI, Morgenthau filled that role with Roosevelt.

Diewerge goes on:

Quote:

The book Germany Must Perish is the background music to the major policy deception that the leaders of the world plutocracy, President Roosevelt and his business partner in international warmongering, Winston Churchill, have launched to support their ally, Stalin.

Unquote.

That was an accurate description.  Stalin, by the way, was the brilliant mastermind pulling the strings of Churchill, Roosevelt and, actually, Hitler.  All three were duped by Stalin.

While Roosevelt preached Total War against the ‘aggressor nations’, unconditional surrender,  while the US was neutral after a fashion, Diewerge gives the German side of who the aggressors were:

Quote:

A digression is in order here.  Who declared war on 3 September 1939?  England and France used the local conflict over Dantzig and the Corridor, where justice was indisputedly on the side of Germany, to declare war on Germany and thus cause a world conflagration.

Unquote.

This was true.  Germany saw itself as rectifying the injuries it endured by the one-sided Treaty of Versailles.  It was also true as Diewerge was right when he next records:

Quote:

And the United States has been trying to “get into the business” for months with repeated provocations.  It prays daily for another “Lusitania” and regrets the case of the “Athenia” German attentiveness ruined their finely spun plans.

Unquote.

So, who were the aggressor nations?  First in order is the Jewish Nation with its proclaimed war of peoples.  Second was Stalin and the Third International, then Churchill and England and tied with Churchill was Roosevelt.  The Versailles Treaty that was designed by England and France in 1918 guaranteed another war in twenty years as was recognized at the time and as it happened.

Now, as to the Jewish desire to exterminate the Germans, consider how the war was fought:  there were actually two operations going on at the same time.  One was the war of land battles fought with armies and one was merely a series of bombing raids to destroy German cities, that is Germany, bomb it out of existence and bombing civilians to kill racial Germans.  In other words, aerial genocide.

During the war only the Anglo-American group had heavy bombers; the others had only tactical support bombers to support the ground troops.  The English developed the Landcaster with the capability of carrying twenty-thousand pound bombs along with incendiaries.  The Americans provided huge fleets of the smaller B-17s and then the bigger B-29s.  In a one of a kind situation that won’t be seen again the huge flotillas  of these behemoths dropping long strings of bombs, you’ve seen this in movies, with no other purpose than killing civilian Germans and destroying Germany.

The crowning achievement was Churchill’s decision to bomb the city of Dresden which at that time was packed with German people, women and children, displaced by the war.  Purely murderous.  There was no war industry there and not a single anti-aircraft gun.  Flotillas of bombers flying over low unloading everything from ten ton blockbusters to scads of incendiaries creating a fire storm.  This was purely a raid against unarmed civilians.  A holocaust pure and simple.  And if one horror wasn’t enough, they came back the next day to bomb the ruins.

As will be remembered, Kaufman and the AJC said that this was a war against a people- the Jews vs. the Germans.  Certainly the terrific bombing campaigns leveling German cities and killing millions was no less a crime than the Germans killing their avowed Jewish enemies in extermination camps like Auschwitz.  One might say tit for tat.  Also remember that the English was the aggressor, declaring war first.  Also, the bombing began long before the death camps were put into operation so one cannot say that the camps were not retaliatory.

Dresden was not like the end of horrors for the Germans but merely the beginning.  While the English and Americas were bombing the hell out of the civilians, the Eastern front against the Germans had been collapsing in an orderly fashion but tens of thousands of German troops had been captured and were never seen alive again.  They died in the Gulags where the camp commandants were with one exception were Jewish.

Once again, the fate of the German immigrants in Russia had little or nothing to do with the war.  Prior to the unification of the Germans under Bismarck, the Russian Czars had invited German colonists to settle in the Ukraine and the Volga Delta.  Always orderly and industrious the Germans prospered farming the Ukraine making that underpopulated desert bloom.  The contrast between the Jewish, the Russian and the German farmers was sharp and distinct.  Germans quickly moved to prominence in the government.

Then, when Germany consolidated all the petty principalities that the West found amusing,  into a unified State, and began functioning on modern Western methods they became a threat being more capable than the English and French, while the Czars began to view their German citizens although thoroughly Russified as a potential Fifth Column and persecuted them.  Thus German hatred began to grow.  Disabilities were placed on the Ukrainian and Volga Germans.  They were discriminated against.  When the Soviets replaced the Russians and Stalin replaced Lenin, the former minister of minorities collected the Volga Germans en masse and sent them to Siberia for extermination.  Thus, combined against the Germans in WWII were the Soviets in the East and Americans in the West and the Jewish Nation distributed throughout in influential, directing positions.  If you think the Germans could not see what was going on you should question your analytical abilities.  Actually, Germany was fighting for survival.

As the Soviet armies breached the German border, the ever clever Stalin who had thought this moment out thoroughly drove the civilian German population before him.  This horrific rout is described as a population transfer by orthodox historians.  One must question their analytical abilities.  The East Germans then murdered and raped by the advance troops were driven pell mell westward in the depths of winter.

The entire East German population of twelve to fifteen million people were displaced in a moment, driven West.  Such intense and concentrated suffering had never been seen in the world and this includes the child’s play of Auschwitz.

The Soviet armies consisted of primitives who had never seen a wrist watch before and were entranced.  They had never tasted real wine.  They had never had their way with beautiful White women.  Now they tortured and raped to their hearts’ content.  Women were gang raped like the flotillas that bombed Dresden.  You have to be heartless not to understand and sympathize.  Auschwitz?  Phooey!

In the dead of winter, ill clad and ill fed, at risk every moment these millions upon millions of wretched people fled just in advance of the total destruction of their destination.  They arrived in Berlin just in time for the most fearful artillery bombardment ever. The Soviets made up for their lack of bombers with terrific and devastating artillery bombardments.  Now remember, the Soviets had only been enabled with these abilities because Roosevelt stripped America of its resources and was supplying Russia with the sinews of war.  Thus the Americans. In effect, were giving it to the Germans both East and West, materially.

Berlin was completely destroyed blown into bits of rubble.  That anyone survived this terrible onslaught both from the air and from the land is a miracle

Now, I was brought up to believe that American soldiers where saints who though brave were never brutal.  And I believed what I had been told.  I didn’t question the propaganda.  And then, my elders made a mistake- they taught me how to read.  And I resent how terribly I was misled.

The Americans were hardly less brutal than the Soviets under the direction of Dwight David Eisenhower.

Kaufman said that the war had nothing to do with Hitler but that it was a war between the Jewish and German peoples.  As such the shooting war ended in 1945; the war of the Jewish people on the German people didn’t.

The Americans and Soviets drove the Germans down but now the Jewish people wanted to finish the job, enforce their plan.  As the Anglo-American and Soviet troops entered Germany for the Jews then, don’t forget Dresden, the horrible truth of the extermination camps was revealed.  The Jews were appalled and now in power over the Germans could get on with exterminating them.  But there was a hitch, Roosevelt died.

In the US the Kaufman Plan had morphed into the Morgenthau Plan of the Secretary of State, Henry Morgenthau Jr.  Roosevelt would have carried out the plan except that he passed in April of ’45 a month before the shooting war ended.  His replacement, Vice President Harry S. Truman was completely ignorant of the plans of the FDR cabal.  Truman entered office with no knowledge of the State of the Union.  Even though FDR was sitting with his feet dangling in the grave he didn’t think it expedient to inform his obvious successor of the state of affairs.  Did he think that his cabal was so evil that Truman would be repulsed?  Let me put it this way, Truman was repulsed when he learned what was going on.  Among other things on his mind was his discovery of the Manhattan Project and its Atom Bomb.  Blindsided by Rooseveltian politics.

However Truman was not so sympathetic to Jewish machinations as FDR had been.  Thus their power was broken.  As members of what might be called FDR’s shadow government they faded away.  Samuel Rosenman, perhaps the closest to FDR no longer had any place in DC.  Sidney Hillman was gone.  Henry Morgenthau himself tendered his resignation unable to work with Truman.  Truman gladly accepted it.  The tyranny of FDR fairly quickly evaporated.  A weight was lifted from the American people.  Don’t think there wasn’t rejoicing either.

While Truman was being quickly briefed on the actual state of affairs, the mopping up operations in German continued more or less according to the Kaufman/Morgenthau Plan.  The Supreme Commander in Europe was Dwight D. Eisenhower.  His advisor and confidant was Bernard Baruch, a man who wanted to be the greatest Jew of all time, and who was, indeed, a very large ranking member of the Jewish World Government. 

As mentioned, he had actually been co-president with Woodrow Wilson during what could now be called WWI.  He had meddled with Republican politics during the interim of 1921-33 and came into power again with the Roosevelt Administration in 1933.  Diewerge described him as co-president with FDR which is not exactly true but may have seemed so to outside observers.  The relationship was more adversarial, but face to face Baruch was able to intimidate FDR.

 Dwight Eisenhower had been disciple of Baruch’s for twenty-five years.  Eisenhower considered him the wisest man alive.  There was a tremendous furor at the time as to how to treat the Germans.  The Jewish faction wanted to dismember the German State completely parceling out the German territories to the surrounding countries.  The dividing of Germany into Allied administrative units perpetually occupied was decided upon.  The German people were to be kept impoverished and starved to death with no relief.

Eisenhower had under his control several German armies.  Although the shooting war was over and there was absolutely no chance of Germany conducting any resistance these men were not released nor, were they treated humanely according the Geneva conventions.  Eisenhower mean to destroy as many as he could.  Remember that Bernard Baruch had direct connections to him and wanted to further the murder of the Germans.  Hence Eisenhower unilaterally declassified them as soldiers and reclassified them as enemy combatants who were not covered by the Geneva Conventions.  The men were crowded together in open fields with no covering and no amenities, ill clothed and ill fed.  Civilians were forbidden on pain of death for comforting them in anyway.  Women trying to pass food through the barbed wire were shot down without compunction.

Nor did this criminal conduct end quickly but was continued until 1950 when the Americans, England and France realized that they needed a buffer state between themselves and the Soviet Union.  And so, the war in the West came to its grudging end.  The Soviets were much more brutal, so much so that there was a continuing drain from the East German Sector of the USSR as Germans fled to the West necessitating the building of the Berlin wall.

As may easily be seen the orthodox version, the academic version, of the period is so distorted as to be a fantasy of the reality.  The root of the war as per Kaufman’s plan was the Jewish Nation’s hatred of the German Nation.  That hatred went back many centuries and was fully developed.  Having essentially captured the US, England and USSR governments the Jewish Nation was able to direct their energies toward a Total Solution of their German Problem which was the total genocide of the German people.  WWII was the greatest crime ever perpetrated.

All this has been obscured and ignored and hidden if not nearly erased.  The world is so conditioned to view the period from the Jewish point of view that they find the truth incomprehensible.  To expose that truth is to expose one’s self to many hazards.  Many such people now have permanent homes in prisons.  Laws in nearly all countries have been passed to make even the objective discussion of the period a criminal offence, France and Germany being the worst offenders with England close behind.  They must protect their narrative at all costs.

And so, nearly a hundred years after the war goes on unabated.  Circumstances have changed but the situation hasn’t.
