Review #1

Praise By Association

I recently read the 1993 Doctoral Dissertation by the author, Steven Luckert, which is entitled: Jesuits, Freemasons, Illuminati and Jacobins. This excellent dissertation describes in detail the genesis of all the beyond-the-pale conspiracy theories which unfortunately are propounded still today by hacks and nuts, as they were at their start in the eighteenth century. Luckert is now chief curator at the Holocaust Museum.




Review #2

Terrific!

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, and viewing Szyk's wonderous art. The biography is well written and interesting. The artwork is intriguing and thought-provoking. I highly recommend this book to afficionados of Jewish Art and Literature.
