The Christians of the town quickly rose up in violent riots to accuse the Jews of ritual murder—the infamous blood-libel charge that has haunted Jews for centuries. In an absorbing narrative, Helmut Walser Smith reconstructs the murder and the ensuing storm of anti-Semitism that engulfed this otherwise peaceful town. Offering an instructive examination of hatred, bigotry, and mass hysteria, \u003ci\u003eThe Butcher's Tale\u003c\/i\u003e is a modern parable that will be a classic for years to come.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWinner of the Fraenkel Award and a \u003ci\u003eLos Angeles Times\u003c\/i\u003e Best Book of 2002.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n                        \u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n                        \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHelmut Walser Smith\u003c\/b\u003e is the Martha Rivers Ingram Professor of History at Vanderbilt University, a recipient of the Guggenheim Fellowship, and the author of the acclaimed \u003ci\u003eThe Butcher’s Tale: Murder and Anti-Semitism in a German Town\u003c\/i\u003e.
