http://archive.org/details/BehindCommunism by Frank L Britton. Probably published in 1952.
The text is complete and unaltered (apart from tiny but irritating errors, which we have tried to correct,
book titles, which are italicised, and the full cover blurb. Where pictures are omitted, also omitted are their
captions). Britton's 96-page booklet is undated, but, judging by internal evidenceKorean War, but Stalin
still alivewas published about 1952, in the USA (The Americanised English spelling has been left
unchanged). Britton gives no autobiographical information, and we know nothing about him, not even
whether Britton was his actual name. (Could he have been a frank Briton?) His booklet is not very well
produced, with spelling errors, slightly inept typography, and badly-reproduced monochrome illustrations.
There are 120 or so of these, including a few maps and pictures relating to pre-20th century times, some
photos from the Revolution, and many 'mug shots' of contemporary American Jews. All are uncredited, but
appear to be from encyclopedias and newspapers. Just a few of these pictures are scanned in, and two have
been added from other sources.
His blurb says: '... Unfortunately, any deep-down discussion of communism and Marxism involves the
Jewish question. We cannot honestly discuss the subject without revealingand commenting onthe fact
that the founders of Russian communism were Jewish. Neither can we ignore the fact that all but a few top
leadership of the American communist partyincluding the recently convicted spys [sic]are of the same
race. ... Historical writers have been understandably reluctant to hold forth on the subject for fear of
marking themselves as "race haters" and bigots." [sic] For this reason the entire subject has been placed
beyond the pale of discussion. One simply does not use the word [sic] "Jew" and "Communism" together.
The result is, of course, censorship. ...'
This booklet deals mostly with Russia and the Russian Revolution, then the USA of about 1950; there's
a huge gap, missing the entire period of the 1930s and Second World War. Possibly Britton had the main
part of his text ready before the 1930s, and tacked on the final part, on Iron Curtain dictators, atom spies
and Hollywood, later
