Personal From the Editor 

REMEMBERING OUR FOUNDER

With the coming November/December issue, THE BARNES REVIEW will be wrapping up VOLUME XXX. Founded back in September 1994 by prolific nationalist and populist publisher Willis A. Carto, TBR is dedicating this issue to him. Without Carto’s unique vision, this magazine would never have come into existence; it would simply have been too much trouble and too much work for another man.

Thankfully, his idea of a Revisionist journal for the common man, covering all eras of history, has survived now for three decades. Willis was a man who was curious about all kinds of topics. People believed he was focused only on such important Revisionist issues as WWII, the real Adolf Hitler, the Holocaust and White nationalism. The truth is, he was interested in just about everything. This included, of course, those issues mentioned above, but also: the world’s religions—both past and present; migrational and explorational patterns of ancient man; suppressed American history; the founding fathers; world history—especially from a Western perspective; the causes and consequences of war; the efforts of other populists; nationalist heroes; economics; architecture; art; music; gardening; dogs; guns; and more. Many a night, when I would, at some late hour, leave the TBR offices—then located on Capitol Hill, in Washington, D.C.— I would see him, still at his desk, reading some newsletter, a newspaper or a history book.

The man was indefatigable and never stopped absorbing information from all kinds of sources. In this issue, we have thus included a wide array of material reflecting the eclectic interests of our founder. Inside, you’ll see articles covering: the daring and inspirational young riders of the Pony Express; suppressed information about the infamous “Hossbach memo”; a biography of French nationalist and populist leader Francois de La Rocque; and the inexplicable push for total war by a prominent WWII-era church leader. In case you didn’t know, Willis was also very interested in Jewish history—ancient, modern, and everything in between. It was his unvarnished discussion of this topic that gained him national notoriety as one of America’s “top anti-Semites.”

Since Willis was integral to the nurturing and expansion of the Holocaust Revisionist movement, we have also included an article on the 1985 Ernst Zündel trial in Canada, which resulted in millions of people being exposed to the Revisionist point of view on the Holocaust. We also include articles from three men who knew Willis quite well. They tell us not only about Willis’s professional accomplishments, but about the man himself. This issue would not be complete without a piece from our founder himself. Willis condemned war as the greatest folly of man. In his essay, Carto blasts those forces driving the perpetual war machine. We also felt it appropriate to include a piece from Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes. Willis valued Barnes’s friendship so much, he named this journal after him. —PAUL ANGEL, Executive Editor

 


The Barnes Review

A JOURNAL OF POLITICALLY INCORRECT HISTORY

September/October 2024 ❖ VOLUME XXX ❖ NUMBER 5


TABLE OF CONTENTS

A HISTORY OF THE PONY EXPRESS

BY MIKE MAINS   The Pony Express was only around for 18 months or so, but, in that time, its brave riders faced bloodthirsty Indians, scorching heat and blinding blizzards to deliver the mail to Americans from Missouri to California.

DID HITLER PLAN AGGRESSIVE WAR AT THESE SECRET MEETINGS?

BY JOHN WEAR, J.D.  The Court Historians claim Hitler and his generals—at four secret meetings—planned “aggressive war” against Germany’s “peaceful neighbors.” Evidence from these meetings was used to condemn multiple Nazis at Nuremberg. But what was really said at these meetings?

A LOOK AT FRANCOIS DE LA ROCQUE

BY RÉMI TREMBLAY  Few people outside of France have ever heard of him, but this army veteran and populist activist could have become president of France had World War II not broken out.

WHEN MYTH BECOMES REALITY

BY MARC ROLAND  We all know there is much truth and many lessons for humanity buried inside our ancient myths. The author believes we should examine these myths more carefully, learn from them, and heed the advice contained within.

INSIDE THE ’85 ERNST ZÜNDEL TRIAL

BY JOHN WEAR, J.D.   Holocaust promoters were ecstatic when criminal charges were brought against Ernst Zündel in Canada. Finally, this “Holocaust denier” would be silenced. And, though Zündel was found guilty, truth be told, it was a major victory for Revisionists. How can that be?

WILLIS CARTO’S ENDURING LEGACY

BY MATTHEW RAPHAEL JOHNSON, PH.D.  Not enough people outside our milieu know his name, but Willis Carto was a vital figure in the development of Revisionism.

REFLECTIONS ON THE LIFE & WORK OF WILLIS ALLISON CARTO

BY SAM DICKSON, J.D.   Here, longtime friend and like-minded White-rights activist Sam Dickson offers us his reflections on the importance of Willis Carto’s career. Dickson explains the critical role Carto played in founding and funding many influential political and publishing endeavors.

FOR WHOM DID THE BELL TOLL?

BY WILLIS A. CARTO  In this timeless analysis, Willis Carto lamented the human, cultural and financial costs of war, and decried the forces constantly pushing for it. He identifies Communism, Zionism and the “mafiosi known as the international bankers” as the prime barriers to peace.

REVISIONISM AND THE HISTORICAL BLACKOUT

BY DR. HARRY ELMER BARNES   Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes was a prolific, daring and honest historian who always sought to “bring history into accord with the facts.” His public condemnation of what he called the “historical blackout” earned him the wrath of the Court Historians he exposed.

WHERE ARE THE GREAT MEN?

BY RONALD L. RAY   The author has dedicated a great portion of his life to historical truth, and has corresponded with some of the greatest Revisionists of our era. Here he praises those he has known personally, but also wonders who will carry the Revisionist torch into the future.

CARDINAL SPELLMAN URGES CHRISTIANS TO EMBRACE WAR

BY ANTONIUS J. PATRICK  It’s good when your local priest or pastor discusses important secular issues in church. Many men of the cloth are reluctant to do so. Cardinal Francis Spellman, however, was not one of those. Unfortunately, he chose to praise war from the lectern, not condemn it
