A Great Iniquity is a book that features a letter written by the renowned Russian writer, Leo Tolstoy, to The Times newspaper in 1906. The letter addresses the issue of the persecution of Jews in Russia, which Tolstoy describes as a great iniquity. The book includes the full text of Tolstoy's letter, which is a passionate call for justice and equality for all people, regardless of their religion or ethnicity. Tolstoy argues that the treatment of Jews in Russia is a violation of basic human rights and a betrayal of the principles of Christianity. He also criticizes the Russian government and the Orthodox Church for their complicity in the persecution of Jews. The book provides a powerful insight into Tolstoy's social and political views, as well as his commitment to moral and ethical principles. It is a must-read for anyone interested in Tolstoy's work or in the history of the Jewish people in Russia.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
