"Are These Things So?": First edition, first printing, of this virulently anti-Semitic book, including the folding chart illustrating how the secret order of the Illuminati plan to destroy civilization.The author (1870-1957) headed the organization American Christian Defenders and accused President Roosevelt of conspiring to turn America into a Jewish state. He self-published the book under his imprint World Alliance Against Jewish Aggressiveness. His efforts to form a united fascist movement in the United States eventually led to his indictment for sedition in January 1942.The book condemns the Jews (conspiring termites), progressive educators (termites in education), and liberal theologians (religious termites), alongside free masons and international bankers, placing them all within a vast conspiracy to promote Jewish Bolshevism. Germany is applauded for crushing its "termites", which offers a model to the US. The author vindicates the Protocols of the Elders of Zion and warns of sinister occult forces.
