The Edifying and Curious History of James De Rothschild
A pamphlet called the edifying and curious history of James de Rothschild came out in 1840s Paris. It's blaming him for a train accident that took place just maybe a few weeks or a couple of months before this pamphlet came out. This pamphlet kicks off a pamphlet war. And there are dozens of pro Rothschild anti Rothschild pamphlets, response pamphlets responses to the ones supposedly written by James. There are German versions, Austrian versions. So this really starts to kick off this era of scapegoating the Rothschilds.
