"Jewish influences in American life : volume III of the International Jew, the…" is a polemical collection of newspaper articles written in the early 20th century. Drawn from the Dearborn Independent, it advances an antisemitic narrative that alleges sweeping Jewish influence over American culture, religion, politics, finance, and popular entertainment. The volume positions itself as an exposé of a so‑called “Jewish Question,” framing its arguments as fact-finding while leaning heavily on hostile interpretation and sensational claims. The opening of the book lays out a preface asserting that earlier installments spurred national debate and that the paper’s “facts” are indisputable, followed by a table of contents signaling targets such as religion, jazz, baseball, Bolshevism, Tammany Hall, Zionism, and the Federal Reserve. The first chapters argue that criticism of the series is not about “religious persecution” of Jews but, rather, that organized Jewish groups purportedly persecute Christianity; they cite selected press clippings and episodes involving public prayers, holidays, schools, and civic rituals to claim Jewish hostility to Christian symbols. The next chapter extends this line, alleging Jewish attacks on multiple Christian denominations and suggesting that “liberal” Christianity converges with Judaism, predicting the erosion of distinct Christian beliefs. The narrative then pivots to professional sports, using the Black Sox scandal to claim Jewish gamblers and businessmen corrupted baseball, naming figures like Arnold Rothstein and Abe Attell, and spinning managerial and governance struggles—such as the “Lasker Plan” and Judge Landis’s appointment—into a story of mounting Jewish control. Throughout, the text presents these accusations as documentation, but its opening portion is plainly a series of assertions and curated anecdotes designed to portray Jewish influence as pervasive and malign.
