Book Review by Carol Taylor

Aha! In the midst of all of the obscenities going on in the Middle-East-of-Africa against the Palestinians - you thought this book review was about that hegemony! You're wrong.

This brilliant, exceptionally timeless book, The Jewish Onslaught, meticulously and quite deliciously details the unfair, nasty, underhanded, feral, protracted and unrelenting campaign waged against Professor Tony Martin, B.Sc. Economics, M.A. and Ph.D. History, a Black, Trinidadian/Tobagonian, world-renowned and respected Historian at Wellesley College in Massachussetts. (Professor Martin also qualified as a Barrister-at-Law at London's prestigious Gray's Inn in 1965)

Professor Martin's erudition shines through information-laden prose as his witty use of The King's English thrusts into and parries against vulpine enemies on and off the Wellesley campus. Every mother's child should have to read this book at least four times: once, for the sheer story content; twice, to learn how to most effectively utilize the english language; thrice, for becoming acutely aware of the art of sustaining urban guerilla warfare and fourth for whetting the readers' literary appetite for as many of Professor Martin's other publications as they can feast their eyes and brains on.

In other words, if you'd like your (children especially) relatives and friends to be fully equipped for surviving in a society which purports to be a democracy, make them a present of The Jewish Onslaught as soon as possible. It's a classic :and Oh! -the volatile, vorticose vocabulary! Word Up!

Professor Martin, a longtime, tenured for 29+ years scholar who, by 1993 had, incredibly, authored, compiled and edited eleven books, not only describes Black African history, but amply and skillfully melds the 'then and now' of what's going on, with critical allusions to well-known prominent players in the perilous survival struggles for Black liberation.

Wait just a moment: I apologize for ending this book review right now - I've got to go re-read

Dr. Martin's thought-and action-inspiring book. Sorry - as I was just reading through: his handwritten dedication (he signed my copy - "To My Sister"), the riveting Preface, "Major Media," "Massa, We Sick?" - "Jewish Racism," "Black Solidarity," etc., etc., etc., and Documents of the Onslaught, (Letters and his 'quasi-lynching' Speech) and Broadside #1,- I had to drop everything, run to the 'phone and try to track down the other Broadsides! (I did find #'s 3 and 4! Whew!)

P.S. Someone else, (more talented than I) will have to finish this review: I'm too busy re-reading The Jewish Onslaught - and Dr. Tony Martin's other publications!
