A solid disquisition on the conspiratorial intrigues behind the drafting and publishing of the Balfour Declaration, though flavorless due to the author's scrupulous adherence to simply presenting the facts chronologically with little to no analysis until the end.

One thing of especial note is how he closes it out with a perceptive identification of the two current Judaic phenomena dominant today: that of right-wing Zionism (the vulgar racist type in which the various non-Jewish peoples inhabiting the Middle East are dehumanized as "cockroaches" by Israeli leadership while being casually murdered, tortured, and expropriated), and left-wing Universalism wherever Jews reside as a minority (anathematizing any attempts of a people trying to maintain racial solidarity and national cohesion in the wake of the third-world immigration onslaught as part of the program to turn the world into a borderless casino of mindless consumers under a hidden tyranny administered by the Chosen).

Acquiring a physical copy is prohibitive due to rarity and cost, but you can read it online for free here.

Attempts to review historical records impartially often reveal that blame, culpability, or dishonor are not to be attached wholly to one side in the conflicts of the last hundred years. To seek to untangle fact from propaganda is a worthy study, for it increases understanding of how we got where we are and it should help people resist exploitation by powerful and destructive interests in the present and future, by exposing their working in the past.
