So shattering were the aftereffects of Kishinev, the rampage that broke out in late-Tsarist Russia in April 1903, that one historian remarked that it was "nothing less than a prototype for the Holocaust itself." In three days of violence, 49 Jews were killed and 600 raped or wounded, while more than 1,000 Jewish-owned houses and stores were ransacked and destroyed.

Recounted in lurid detail by newspapers throughout the Western world, and covered sensationally by America's Hearst press, the pre-Easter attacks seized the imagination of an international public, quickly becoming the prototype for what would become known as a "pogrom", and providing the impetus for efforts as varied as The Protocols of the Elders of Zion and the NAACP.

Using new evidence culled from Russia, Israel, and Europe, distinguished historian Steven J. Zipperstein's wide-ranging book brings historical insight and clarity to a much-misunderstood event that would do so much to transform 20th-century Jewish life and beyond.

Interesting to see the connection in time and in the story to the infamous Potocols of the Elders of Zion book. The story moves from Kishinev to other parts of Russia to all over the world, but that's the way the story did travel. It's amazing the world reaction, particularly in the U.S. to less than 100 Jews being murdered, when in just a few decades Jews would be murdered in a systematic and efficient manner that the 49 believed to have been killed in Kishinev is not at all in the same league. Yet the Kishinev massacre did increase Jewish interest in Zionism (Jews returning to their ancient homeland).

I enjoyed everything about the book including the narration which, unfortunately, managed to botch nearly ever Hebrew term or proper name

very well down, excellent yet flawed reading.

book is very thorough with a lot of research and a lot of documents that I never seen before on the event in 1903 in Chisinau.
reading is excellent and flows very well for each chapter and I finished the book in a couple days.

Only problem in the book is I've been in the town in 2019. I think the author is very harsh on the town as being kind of slow and decrepit.

good analysis of the 1903 event
