The kibbutz movement had a long connection with European Jewish youth groups, and such visits would have been encouraged.

First edition; 8vo (22.5 x 15.5 cm), contemporary cloth-backed boards partially detached, library stamps, title professionally restored, pages browned, a few small marginal tears; text in German; [2], 200 pp. A key document of early Zionist history - the official protocol of the First Zionist Congress in Bazel. The publication of Herzl's "The Jewish State" in 1896 provided the blueprint for modern Zionism. Later, the World Zionist Movement became the force to drive the practical issues and implement Herzl's plan. The Congress was the Parliament of the Zionist Movement and the first Jewish representative political assembly. The first Zionist Congress held on the 29-31 of August 1897 was a landmark in Zionist and Jewish History, and one of the seminal moments in modern Jewish history.

A file copy of a letter from E. D. Goitein, the lawyer for 34 detainees imprisoned in Acre, to Lieutenant-General George Giffard, the general officer commanding at Force Headquarters in Jerusalem. Goitein questions the conduct of the trial and the evidence used for conviction (documents "more stupid than dangerous"). The prisoners were all linked to a training course held in 1939 at Mishmar HaYarden. Their arrest was part of a British clampdown, following the outbreak of the Second World War, on any threats to stability in Palestine. 2 sheets (330 x 210 mm), each with duplicated typescript one side only. Both sheets hole-punched top right, creasing and old signs of handling: very good.

First edition. The memorandum opens by criticizing the lack of progress towards establishing a "Jewish National Home", before presenting evidence on the Jewish economic contribution to Palestine and infringements of the population's rights. The document was submitted to the League of Nations by the British high commissioner of Palestine, Sir John Chancellor. Loosely inserted, likely as issued, are letterpress copies (in English and Hebrew) of the council's May 1930 letter to Chancellor to submit the memorandum. Quarto. Text in English and Hebrew. Original brown patterned wrappers, covers lettered in black. Spine worn at ends, covers creased in places: very good.

First Edition. Broadsheet, 54.5cm x 40.5cm (ca. 21½ x 16 inches), folding down to ca. 5-1/2" x 4". Old vertical and horizontal folds (as issued); faint dampstaining, ½-inch puncture in lower margin; complete and Very Good. A novel metamorphic fundraising broadsheet which, as it is unfolded, features the repeating phrase: "TIRED?" in heavy type on all five of the revealed panels, finally opening to a large portrait of a downtrodden refugee over an appeal to support a variety of charities including the United Jewish Campaign, the United Palestine Appeal, and the Conference of Jewish Charities: "Give until Your Conscience feels Good!" We've dated the piece to the year 1927, based upon the named Treasurer, Meyer Kussy, who according to contemporary newspaper accounts was appointed Treasurer of Newark's United Jewish Appeal in November, 1926. Kussy died in January 1928. Not coincidentally, the year 1927 was one of intense crisis in the settlement of Palestine: a flood of refugees from post-Civil War Russia had caused the region's population to grow rapidly, but economic production had failed to keep pace. It was a low point in the Zionist movement, causing many to question the practicability of Jewish settlement; one contemporary Jewish scholar even remarked, explaining Palestine's failure to flourish: "The answer to the question, 'What is wrong with Zionism?' seems to be that, although Jews are financially and culturally very powerful all over the world, only the poor and unsuccessful Jew who has a heroic capacity to suffer, but is without constructive experience, goes to Palestine" (see Ervin Acel, "The Crisis in Zionism;" Current History v.27 no.2 - November 1927). Campaigns like this one in America and, to a lesser degree in Western Europe, helped raise the many millions of dollars needed to support the movement until Jewish Palestine could achieve self-sufficiency. A single example of this broadsheet noted in commerce (Swann Auction Galleries, 2025; this copy), no copies noted in OCLC or on-line finding aids.

First edition, rare in commerce, of this pamphlet attacking Amin al-Husseini and his "Arab reign of terror" in Palestine, as well as the stultifying effect of violence on the economic prospects of the broad Arab population. The publisher, the Zionist Federation of Great Britain and Ireland, positions itself as an ally of ordinary Arab residents. "The 'full, frank and free' expression of the Arab people is possible only when the terrorism has been finally liquidated. Only then is a reconciliation possible between Jews and Arabs; only then can they meet in an atmosphere of peace, and formulate a policy based on each other's mutual interests" (p. 11). Octavo, pp. 16. Original printed self-wrappers, wire-stitched as issued. Wrappers toned and with couple of stains: very good.

11 numbers, 4tos in printed self-wrappers, stapled. "Jewish Committee for Political Studies" was a Zionist-oriented group of intellectuals established by the sociologist Gottfried Salomon and the journalist Siegfried Thalheimer. It advocated an independent state for the Jewish people, but had reservations about it being established in Palestine. Salomon, a student of Georg Simmel and protegé of Martin Buber, was professor of sociology at the University Frankfurt. He was forced out of his position by the Nazis and fled Germany, ending up in Paris on the faculty of the Sorbonne. Thalheimer published anti-Nazi papers in Germany and was soon blacklisted and forced into exile, also landing in Paris. "Ordo" was short-lived with the start of the war. Thalheimer was arrested as a German citizen but released. In 1941 both he and Salomon were aided by the American Emergency Rescue Committee led by Varian Fry to escape from occupied France by way of Spain. Salomon became a professor at the New School for Social Research and Thalheimer made a living as an art dealer before returning to Germany after the war. Wear and chipping to wrappers, edges - especially in the first number; exceedingly fragile.

No Binding. Condizione: Near Fine. This collection of essays, letters, and other papers documents a crucial period during the British Mandate in Palestine. The author, Aryeh (Simochony) Friedlansky, was a member of the Revisionist Zionist movement founded by Ze ev (Vladmir) Jabotinsky. These newly discovered documents shed valuable light in the history of Revisionist Zionism. Revisionists produced a rich corpus of writings on a wide range of topics, in the process creating a radical new vision of the Hebrew national revival (Kaplan, The Jewish Radical Right). At its core Revisionist Zionism was nationalist and thus was at odds with Labor Zionism, the mainstream political system dominating Jewish institutions at the time. These papers record Revisionist Zionism s opposition to many of the political developments of the 1930s. Revisionist Zionism was a comprehensive national philosophy that sought to refashion every aspect of Jewish national life in its image, a philosophy whose political and cultural imprint is still very much evident in modern-day Israel (Kaplan). Subjects include: the formation and constitution of Friedlansky s Youth Group Union in Jerusalem in 1930, the Betar youth movement, Herzl, Jabotinsky, A Letter to the High Commissioner of the British Mandate of Palestine, pro-Arab bias among the British, the rise of violence against Jews in Palestine, Arab riots, promotion of sports among Jewish youth, military service, conscription, and the promotion of a national spirit among Jews in Palestine. Many of the Revisionist documents in this collection demonstrate the movement s campaign for militant action. Several papers concern Jabotinsky s Betar, a Revisionist Zionist youth movement intended to abolish the ghetto mentality of the Jewish people and to cultivate a new kind of Jew powerful enough to build the state of Israel. In The Sportive and Cultural Work in Betar, Friedlansky discusses how Jews must become strong and physically powerful in order to protect themselves. The Question of Legion and Betar: A Movement of Liberation oppose the stereotype of Jew as coward, arguing that a positive militaristic spirit must be instilled in Jewish youth. Unlike members of the Labor movement who saw themselves as workers tied to the land, young Revisionists saw themselves as warriors, the leaders in the fight for independence (Kaplan). Friedlandsky s manuscript Since Then and Until Now: A Few Words about Our Political Situation published in Hatikvah in 1932 criticizes political leaders of the Labor movement for advocating restraint as Arabs riot and kill Jewish civilians in Palestine. Mapai, the dominate Labor party headed by David Ben-Gurion, supported Havlaga, a policy of restraint that prevented Jews from retaliation for Arab attacks, the military was to act only in self defense. Revisionist Zionists did not see the Labor movement s purity of arms as an effective means of establishing a Jewish state. Papers in this collection, including The Blood has not Dried and We Exist on a Volcanic Mountain, address the frustration felt by Revisionist Zionists as Jewish people remained vulnerable in the face of Arab attacks. Jabotinsky and his followers believed that Arabs would repeatedly challenge their colonizers until they fought the colonizers and failed. A peace agreement between the Jews and Arabs in Palestine would come about only after repeated defeat of the Arabs in war. This rare survival documents a major force in the development of the modern state of Israel. The Revisionists embodied the dark side of the Zionist dream, and the violent and militaristic element that they represented has been ignored and overlooked by both the Zionist (and Israeli) academic and the political leadership (Kaplan). This unusual collection merits preservation and scholarly investigation. 31 items comprising 105 pages, 90 manuscript and 15 typescript. Various sizes. Generally in good condition.
