Ford also saw to the publication of his series in book form. It was titled The International Jew.

It ran to four volumes.

His weekly International Jew essays continued without pause, and Ford motor dealers kept tossing the latest issue of the Dearborn Independent onto the front seat of newly purchased Model Ts all over the country.

Ford saw to it that the four volumes of The International Jew were translated and published worldwide in 12 international editions, including one in Germany, and put a pin in that. Of all the contributions Henry Ford made to this world, one of them was this.

The most prolific, most sustained published attack on Jews the world had ever known.

The German edition of Ford's book had landed in the hands of one particularly gifted propagandist.

When Adolf Hitler's book Mein Kampf was published in 1925, the author appeared to lift not just ideas, but whole passages from Ford's own publications.
