Allan Levine Books - Non Fiction

The secret of his success is ensuring that his penetrating portraits of the powerful and powerless — for that is what readers truly want to know and learn about — are set with historical perspective and in a narrative written in an “easy style” — as Publisher’s Weekly put it in 2003. It is the reason many of his books are popular with university history professors and high school teachers in the United States and Canada who want to make the subject interesting and relevant to their students. He has delved into Canadian as well as American and European history.

SEEKING THE FABLED CITY

The Canadian Jewish Experience

McClelland & Stewart, 2018

In this definitive and meticulously researched account of the Jewish experience in Canada, award-winning and critically acclaimed author Allan Levine documents a story that is rich, accessible, often surprising, and epic in its scope. Relying on an abundance of primary sources and first-hand documentation and interviews, Seeking the Fabled City chronicles the successes and failures, the obstacles overcome and those not conquered, of a historic journey and the people who travelled it.

Seeking the Fabled City is a story that unfolds over 250 years—from the decade after the conquest of New France in 1759, when small numbers of Sephardic Jews of Spanish and Portuguese descent arrived in British North America, through the great wave of Russian and Eastern European Jewish immigration at the turn of the twentieth century, to the present, in which Canada’s large Jewish community, no longer hindered by the anti-Semitism of the past, is free to flourish. This is a chronicle of a people that takes place at hundreds of locales across the country—mainly in the large urban centres of Montreal, Toronto, Vancouver, and Winnipeg, but also in west coast and maritime villages and tiny prairie towns—in a riveting drama with a cast of thousands.

“An author of fifteen published works, [Levine] has a consistently readable style, weaving narratives around well-researched information while interspersing many vignettes…Levine’s book stands as a fresh, easily accessible description of how Canada has been a fabled land for Jews and how Jews have added to this country’s attractiveness to others.”
—Canada’s History Magazine

“Levine’s skill is in carefully picking his way through the available primary and secondary resources to create an accessible and storied account of the Canadian Jewish past.
—Harold Troper, Canadian Jewish Studies

“Winnipeg historian and Free Press contributor Allan Levine’s engaging narration of the 250-year history of the Jewish community in Canada — its aspirations and accomplishments, as well as its perennial challenges — is the most wide-ranging and thoroughly researched account we have to date…The book is rich in its depictions of the rise and fall of Jewish newspapers across the country.”

Toronto: biography of a city

Douglas & McIntyre, 2014

In the last sixty years, Toronto has been transformed from a provincial town to significant urban heavyweight. Few cities have experienced such sustained growth, and the packed streets of North America’s fourth-largest city are a far cry from the origins of the city as “Little York,” which was comprised of the lieutenant-governor’s muddy tent—which he shared with his wife and many children—and some barracks.

Between then and now, fervent Orangemen have imposed strict morals on the growing provincial town, and an influx of immigrants changed the face of the city.

Allan Levine delves into the character of a city that strives to balance urban development with the preservation of its distinct neighbourhoods, to maintain its status without losing its individuality.

Its inhabitants have fought tooth and nail to prevent an expressway being built to the downtown core, have called in the army to clear the city of snow after a blizzard and consistently pack the Maple Leafs’ arena every game, win or lose, making the hockey team the most valuable franchise in the NHL. 

The city can also claim one of the first Canadian politicians to stand up for gay rights, a store owner who almost single-handedly preserved theatre in Toronto, and then there’s Mayor Rob Ford…

With the same eye for character, anecdote and circumstance that made Peter Ackroyd’s London and Colin Jones’s Paris so successful, Levine’s captivating prose integrates the sights, sounds and feel of Toronto with a broad historical perspective, linking the city’s present with its past through themes such as politics, transportation, public health, ethnic diversity and sports. Toronto invites readers to discover the city’s lively spirit over four centuries and to wander purposefully through the city’s many unique neighborhoods, where they can encounter the striking and peculiar characters who have inhabited them: the powerful and powerless, the entrepreneurs and the entertainers, and the moral and the corrupt, all of whom have contributed to Toronto’s collective identity.


Praise for Toronto: Biography of a City

"History buffs will thoroughly enjoy Allan Levine’s volume Toronto. This huge book is the result of (obviously) years of painstaking research and thorough writing.” Five Stars.
San Francisco Book Review

“This highly informative and easy-to- read account accumulates four centuries of history that have transformed “a quiet and family-friendly green space on the rolling land alongside the Humber River” into one of the biggest urban centers in North America. Award-winning author and historian Levine (King) has produced a popular-styled biography” of Toronto, the biggest, the richest, the most multicultural, and the most hated city in Canada.”
—Publishers’ Weekly

“A colourful, comprehensive cultural history of Canada’s largest metropolis…In the same vein as Peter Ackroyd’s literary portrait of London, or Colin Jones’s remarkable study of Paris, author Allan Levine has penned an almost-novelistic account of the city’s rise (and some falls)… Mayor-elect John Tory would be well served by reading Mr. Levine’s book to see what he’s in for.”
—Mark Medley, Books Editor, Globe and Mail

“The subtitle of Allan Levine’s ambitious history of Toronto may seem stolid as the city’s British founding families, but it doesn't take long for the reader to realize how carefully chosen it is. Levine, who won high praise for his 2011 biography of Mackenzie King, treats the city as he would any biographical subject: as a constantly changing personality rooted to the historical moment by a set of defining passions, idiosyncrasies, blind spots, and complex relations with family members… Love it or hate it, Toronto is a slippery city to pin down... Levine’s excellent biography goes a long way to explaining why.”
—Quill & Quire

“…a fond but not uncritical history of Canada's largest city… his handsome book…abounds with punchy portraits of the city's leading citizens: many scoundrels and a few tarnished saints. Levine is adept at linking historical events today's news… Levine enlivens his tale with judicious helpings of sex, drugs and rock and roll…"
—Winnipeg Free Press

“…Levine’s shrewd and lively account of two centuries of Toronto history….”
—Brian Bethune, Maclean’s

“Ambitious in scope and masterful in execution, Allan Levine’s panoramic portrait of our city from its beginnings to the present is sweeping and opinionated, judicious and clever, insightful and gossipy all at once… His summation of the Ford years is simply superb…Let’s face it: for a writer like Levine, a mayor like Ford is a gift from heaven. And, for all of us who love Toronto, so is this book. Toronto: Biography of a City is a timely, vibrant history of our modern megacity as it comes of age.”
—The Canadian Jewish News

"Allan Levine’s biography of Toronto is a triumph of historical storytelling. Avoiding the worn path of grand themes and broad concepts of civic evolution, he instead ventures out, engagingly marshalling real-time encounters of people, places and events—the good, the bad and the ugly of it all. This fresh take on Toronto evokes a saga of the city that keeps the delighted reader turning the pages, eager to enjoy—and learn—more.
—David Crombie, Former mayor of Toronto

“Allan Levine has done us all a favour by devoting his considerable talents and imagination to writing a “biography” of Toronto. The city becomes more real and alive under his microscope, and his powers of narration and storytelling make this a lively and informative read.”
—Bob Rae, Canada’s History

miracle at the forks

The Museum That Dares Make A Difference
Co-authored with Peter C. Newman
Figure 1 Publishing, 2014

The engaging story of the making of Canada's fifth national museum - a beautifully designed homage to Izzy Asper's dream of making a difference

It was on July 18, 2000 that Israel (Izzy) Asper, the renowned Canadian businessman and philanthropist, first discussed his idea of building a human rights centre in Winnipeg. He wanted to build a museum that would make a difference; that would help educate visitors to the museum about human rights issues, all with the aim of making the world a better, more humane place. 

He shared this vision with Moses (Moe) Levy, the Executive Director of the Asper Foundation, and gave Levy the mandate to make the museum happen.

Miracle at the Forks recounts the fourteen-year ordeal of making Izzy Asper’s dream a reality. It recounts the financial and political challenges of building a world class museum in Winnipeg, an objective that was made all the more difficult by Asper’s death not six months after the public unveiling of plans for a national museum at The Forks on

April 17, 2003. It is a story of passion and sheer will, about Moe Levy's determination to see Asper's grand idea come true, of Gail Asper's fortitude and unflagging drive to make sure her father's most cherished project became real, and of the countless others who lobbied, donated money, volunteered time, and fought to make the museum happen.

Written by acclaimed non-fiction writers, Peter C. Newman and Allan Levine, Miracle at the Forks also tells the story of the building of the museum itself, of the international competition to find an architect to design the building, and of Antoine Predock, one of the finest architects in the world who dared build a museum that is as remarkable in its construct as Izzy Asper’s dream was in its audacity.

Filled with full colour photography and exquisitely designed, this book will mark the official opening of The Canadian Museum for Human Rights on September 20, 2014.

King

William Lyon Mackenzie King:
A Life Guided by the Hand of Destiny
Douglas & McIntyre, 2011

Rated as one of the ten best books on Canadian Prime Ministers by Ken McGoogan, Globe and Mail, October 15, 2011

The first biography in a generation of Canada’s most eccentric and most important prime minister—Mackenzie King—and his defining influence on our 20th century.

Most Canadian historians consider William Lyon Mackenzie King to be not only the country’s greatest prime minister but also its most peculiar. From 1919 to 1948 he occasionally lorded over the Liberal Party, also serving as prime minister for much of
that time.

Mackenzie King was a brilliant tactician, was passionately committed to Canadian unity, and was a protector of the underdog, introducing such cornerstones of Canada’s social safety net as unemployment insurance, family allowances and old-age pensions. At the same time, he was insecure, craved flattery, became upset at minor criticism, and was prone to fantasy. 

King loosened the Imperial connection with Britain and was wary of American military and economic power. Yet he loved all things British and acted like a praised schoolboy when British Prime Minister Winston Churchill or U.S. President Franklin Roosevelt treated him as an equal.

This first major biography of Mackenzie King in 30 years mines the pages of his remarkable diary, at 30,000 pages one of the most significant and revealing political documents in Canada’s history and a guide to the deep and often moving inner conflicts that haunted Mackenzie King. With animated prose and a subtle wit, Allan Levine drawsa multidimensional portrait of this most compelling of politicians.

Winner of the Alexander Kennedy Isbister Award for Non-fiction, 2012

Short-listed for the John W. Dafoe Book Prize

 

Praise for King

“Until now no one has ever done as magisterial a job as Levine in fusing King’s many parts into a complex but comprehensive whole.” 
— Brian Bethune, Maclean’s


“Levine has succeeded masterfully … By examining King’s personality and politics as two sides of the same coin, Levine has produced a wonderfully comprehensive portrait of this intensely disagreeable — yet critically important — Canadian.” 
— Quill and Quire, Starred Review


"If anyone doubted that King spent a lot of time in la-la land, they need only read Mr. Levine’s intriguing account, one that fleshes out new material from his voluminous diaries" 
— Lawrence Martin, Globe and Mail


“If the world needed further evidence to disprove the notion we need to know as much as possible about our political leaders, it’s between the covers of Allan Levine’s new biography of William Lyon Mackenzie King. … A skillful introduction to one of the most important and perplexing personalities to grace the top levels of Canadian political performances.” 
— Kelly McParland, National Post


“Allan Levine gave himself the mission of turning this dull but eccentric Canadian into a subject worthy of contemporary discussion. He succeeds, bringing to life the inner thoughts of his subject as best anyone can. … [Levine] is one of those rare writers equally adept at fiction and non-fiction, helpful in the King case where the two realms seem to blend.” 
— Donald Benham, Winnipeg Free Press

the devil in babylon

Fear of Progress and the Modern Life
McClelland & Stewart, 2005

What should the modern world look like? Who should be its leaders? And what values should it embrace? We have never wrestled over these questions more than in the first three decades of the twentieth century.

Allan Levine’s book chronicles this wide-ranging emotional and moral conflict by focusing on the people who lived through this turbulent era: an array of personalities – traditionalists as well as progressives, the powerful and the powerless – who, for better or worse, shaped the contours of contemporary North American society. 

Among them were anarchist Emma Goldman, prohibitionist and creationist William Jennings Bryan, women’s rights campaigner Nellie McClung, and gangster Al Capone.

Their personal experiences are set against the heated debate about the impact of immigration, the role of women, the conflict between science and religion, the influence of Hollywood, and the changing attitudes about sex – issues that preoccupied, and even consumed, North Americans of all classes.

“ Levine brings the historical material to vivid life, shining new light on previously well- trodden ground …. [The Devil in Babylon is] a sterling example of popular history that gives the reader much to think about.”
—Vancouver Sun

“ Levine has written an enjoyable, fascinating and readable book….Levine is an excellent storyteller….He writes clearly and evocatively.”
—Winnipeg Free Press

"Compelling and gracefully written work of popular history…Levine's portraits of the characters on both sides of the divide are fascinating…The Devil in Babylon is an engrossing and somewhat prophetic book, a reminder that a commitment to social justice and fairness is an evolving covenant"
—Quill and Quire

Scattered among the Peoples

The Jewish Diaspora in Twelve Portraits


McClelland & Stewart, Toronto, 2002, The Overlook Press, New York, 2003 Duckworth Publishers, London, 2003

From Seville in 1492 to Kiev in 1967, book brings to life twelve defining points in the Jewish Diaspora in a series of 
moment-in- time portraits of individual people, their families and communities, and the cities they inhabited. 

In addition to Seville, where the story begins with the expulsion of the Jews from Spain, and Kiev, where the refusenik Jews fought for the right to emigrate to Israel, there is Venice in 1516 and the establishment of the first ghetto, Constantinople in 1666 and the Jewish physicians to the sultans, Amsterdam in 1700 and the glorious rebirth of Sephardic Jewish culture, Vienna in 1730 and the immensely powerful yet vulnerable court Jews, Frankfurt in the 1840s during the Age of Emancipation, St Petersburg in 1881 and the pogroms inflicted on the shtetls, Paris in 1895 and the Dreyfus scandal, New York in 1913 and the tenement life and culture of the Lower East Side, Berlin in 1925 when there was talk of a German-Jewish ‘symbiosis,’ and the dreadful plight of the Vilna ghetto in 1944.

But the focus of each chapter is the personal and public lives of individuals. A few, such as merchant and poet Don Isaac Abravanel, soldier Alfred Dreyfus, and writer and editor Abraham Cahan, are well known; others, like doctor Moses Hamon, financier Samuel Oppenheimer, and journalist Judah Leib Gordon, are now unjustly forgotten.

Their successes or failures as teachers, rabbis, merchants, writers, soldiers, and physicians add a colourful and human dimension to the sprawling saga of the Diaspora.

fugitives of the forest

The Heroic Story of Jewish Resistance and Survival During the Second World War

Stoddart, Toronto 1998 & The Lyons Press, an imprint of Globe Pequot Press, New Haven, CT, 2009

More than fifty years ago, as the Second World War and the Nazi assault on Europe ended, approximately 25,000 Jews, entire families in some instances walked out of the forests of Eastern Europe. For three years, these men, women and children had miraculously survived eluding Nazi hunts and Soviet, Polish, and Ukrainian partisans who often killed first and asked questions later. 

They had escaped from the Nazi ghettos and slave labour camps and formed secret partisan camps in the surrounding forests. 

The forest not only protected them, it also became their base for sabotage and resistance efforts against the Germans and their allies.

Many of us will ask the troubling question, why did not more Jews resist? 

But the question should be, how, under the circumstances, was any resistance possible at all?

Winner of the Canadian Society for Yad Vashem Award in Holocaust History, 1999

"I hope that Defiance will inspire [people] to learn more about the true story. They can read about it in Allan Levine's amazing book, Fugitives of the Forest. I couldn't believe these people's will to survive"
— Actress Alexa Davalos, who plays Lilka Ticktin in the 2008 film Defiance, the love and future wife of Tuvia Bielski.

"This is a story told just in time, for the many eye witnesses are dying every year now. But Levine carefully documents their accounts and reconstructs a powerful moment of triumph in the middle of the modern world's greatest catastrophe"
— Doug Wead, U.S. presidential historian, philanthropist, and Special Assistant to U.S. President George H. W. Bush

“Allan Levine’s ambitious chronicle…meticulously researched…is a must read for those who wonder about organized Jewish resistance to the Holocaust.”
—Globe and Mail

“[This] book justifies itself historically and morally. Levine’s sober tone is, after all, a retort to the livid obscenity of history"

—Toronto Star


“Allan Levine has written an important book…He tells the story of Jewish armed resistance in Eastern Europe very well. He weaves personal vignettes, often poignant into his narrative…His graphic and gripping account should ensure a wide readership.”
—Winnipeg Free Press

“For those of us who participated in the events detailed in this book, its significance lies in the author’s ability to chronicle our thoughts, our moods, our objectives, our tragedies, and our sufferings, as well as our hopes, dreams, and victories.”

The Prime Ministers and the Media

Dundurn Press, Toronto, 1993

A lively look at the complex relationship between the Prime Ministers of Canada and the media.

Based on a year of independent research at the National Archives in Ottawa as well as in other archives and libraries across the country, this book examines the often- strained relationship between Canadian prime ministers and the media from John A. Macdonald to Brian Mulroney. More than 60 interviews were conducted with the who’s who of Ottawa to produce a provocative and insightful survey of how journalists have affected the course of Canadian political history.

"Allan Levine has produced a masterful survey of how the media and Canadian prime ministers interact, protect and savage one another. Levine makes a subject that could have been a real snorer read like a detective novel"
—Peter C. Newman, Maclean’s

“It’s about time someone came close to telling the truth…of how the information that voters need to make democratic decisions is harshly brokered between and among politicians, reporters and the owners of the nation’s media outlets…Scrum Wars makes a good start…"
—Globe and Mail

"Allan Levine is quickly emerging as one of the country’s best popular historians…Anyone concerned about the power of the national media…would do well to read Scrum Wars"
