John Ross Taylor - Later Life

Later Life

Taylor was a fixture during the 1989 trial of accused Nazi war criminal Imre Finta and could be seen carrying lawyer Douglas Christie's books. He was also an associate of Ernst Zundel and Jim Keegstra.

In the last years of his life, Taylor was active in the Aryan Nations after he moved to Calgary following his release from prison. In 1993, using the pseudonym "His Excellency J. J. Wills", he co-wrote a book with Robert O'Driscoll titled The New World Order in North America which Bernie Farber described as "the anti-Semitic ravings of a very confused mind."

He appears in the 1991 documentary film Blood in the Face, directed by Kevin Rafferty, which looks at the American neo-fascist movement. The name of the film is taken from his claim that white people are superior to non-whites because they show "blood in the face" and blush when they are ashamed.

He died in a Calgary boarding house in 1994.

Famous quotes containing the word life:

    For life is but a dream whose shapes return,
    Some frequently, some seldom, some by night
    And some by day,
    James Thomson (1834–1882)

    The way to go to the circus, however, is with someone who has seen perhaps one theatrical performance before in his life and that in the High School hall.... The scales of sophistication are struck from your eyes and you see in the circus a gathering of men and women who are able to do things as a matter of course which you couldn’t do if your life depended on it.
    Robert Benchley (1889–1945)
