1947242 pages. "Contains a number of short glimpses of certain scenes in the tragic drama of Europe between the two Great Wars, as they were witnessed by the writer. The implications of those scenes were so clear that it must remain something of a problem why the leaders of the nations which wished for peace failed to take warning while yet there was time to avert disaster. A scene from each of the Great Wars has been included as prelude and climax, and some account of what defeat has so far meant for Germany. It is a mild punishment compared with what would have befallen her opponents if they had been defeated." - foreword. Black and white photographic plates. Front free endpaper removed.

1933Publishers cloth. 4to. 78 pages. 27 cm. First edition. Illustrated by Note Kozlovski. Beginners Yiddish primer, with illustrated stories and word exercises, jokes and riddles. Published by Farlag Matones in New York, written by Sarah L. Liebert; born in Poland in 1892 and immigrated to the United States, settling in New York. She was active in Jewish communal and cultural life in the New York and New Jersey areas, achieving perhaps greatest public recognition as president of the Sholem Aleichem Women's Organization. She was also a member of the National Council of Jewish Women. In the 1920s and 1930s she served as Supervisor of Jewish Education of the Council's Farm and Rural Department, an organization that responded to the needs of Jews living in the rural areas of New York and New Jersey without a central Jewish community on which to rely. In her position as supervisor of Jewish education, Liebert developed and disseminated Jewish educational materials in rural areas, contacted and trained itinerant Jewish educational teachers, organized Jewish educational classes, and helped new immigrants adjust to their new environment. Sarah Liebert died in New York in 1955. (Jewish Womens Archive) Subjects: Yiddish language - Readers. OCLC lists 5 copies (DLC, Indiana, Harvard, HUC, UT Austin) .
