Beilis languished in jail for over two years as government officials conspired to frame him. By the time a jury exonerated Beilis in 1913, his trial had become a cause célèbre around the world. Weinberg has assembled a set of documents taken from the trial transcript, government reports, and newspapers that lays bare the government conspiracy and reveals the likely murderers. The book illuminates the nature of official and popular antisemitism in tsarist Russia on the eve of World War I UR - https://doi.org/10.1515/9781644699225 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/isbn/9781644699225 UR - https://www.degruyter.com/document/cover/isbn/9781644699225/original ER -
