I took a look at former Anti-Defamation League director Abraham Foxman's Five Books Expert Recommendations on antisemitism. His number-one recommendation happens to be Constantine's Sword, by James Carroll. Carroll happens to be a writer who brilliantly illustrates his use of English, so on display are all the elements of English literature. But if you're a reader who just wants a simple book that gets to the point, unfortunately Constantine's Sword isn't right for you.
What are great history books that digest the history of antisemitism, books that can be picked up and read by any member of the general public, be they an adult layman, a teenager, a Christian, a Jew, or an ESL speaker?
Looking for the same here.
On a slightly related note, have you read The Case for Israel by Alan Dershowitz? The book focuses on the unjust treatment of Israel in the period of time leading up to and after its establishment as a nation. So not explicitly focusing on antisemitism and the time covered is not near enough, but might make for an interesting read on biased treatment of Jews within the context of obtaining & maintaining nationhood. I personally found it quite enlightening.
