An Introduction to “Rasputin and The Jews: A Reversal of History”
As described on Amazon, “This book is a well-documented account of Rasputin as a healer, equal rights activist and man of God, and why he was so vilified by the aristocracy that their vicious rumors became accepted as history. For nearly a century, Grigory Rasputin, spiritual advisor to Russia’s last Tsar and Tsarina, has been unjustly maligned simply because history is written by the politically powerful and not by the common man. A wealth of evidence shows that Rasputin was discredited by a fanatically anti-Semitic Russian society, for advocating equal rights for the severely oppressed Jewish population, as well as for promoting peace in a pro-war era. Testimony by his friends and enemies, from all social strata, provides a picture of a spiritual man who hated bigotry, inequity and violence. The author is the great-great niece of Aron Simanovitch, Rasputin’s Jewish secretary.”
The purpose of these pages is not only about the book, but primarily to right a century-old wrong. Included among these pages are:
1. An Article, “Vindicating Rasputin,” distilling the basic essence of the book;
2. Excerpts from the book;
3. Reviews of the book by readers and book review editors;
4. The 12 year journey, researching and writing the book;
5. About Rasputin’s secretary, Aron Simanovitch and his memoirs
6. Related reading
7. Miscellaneous other details
As I post these entries, I hope that they will not only entertain, but educate, and perhaps add another dimension to the historical view of Grigori Rasputin.
