1939First separate edition. Original paper wrappers. 8vo. 15 pages; 22.5 cm. The swift and apparently inexorable process of Jewish dispossession in many Central and Eastern European countries makes the early issue of such a Jewish National Loan a possible medium of saving at least a fraction of Jewish property. Had Jewish means been in time invested to a larger extent in Palestine, the tragedy of Jewish dispossession in Germany and Austria today might have been far less calamitous. A detailed account of the financing issues and potential solutions for infrastructure in Palestine. Granovsky explains how the donation based financing system was unsustainable for the needs of the developing country and suggests potential new long term solutions such as loans, living legacy, and joint land purchase.

20012 vols., roy. 8vo., First Edition, with very numerous photographs (a number full-page) throughout; original pictorial boards, a near fine set. The set comprises Vol. I: Road to War; Vol. II: Enigma. Ten years in the making, this comprehensive study chronicles the life of Reinhard Heydrich, Hitler's probable heir apparent. This extraordinary man rose to become second only to Himmler within the SS, controlling the entire Security Service through a career of controversy which continues to this day. He was considered so dangerous that the British had him assassinated. Volume 1 details Heydrich's life from birth to the outbreak of WWII; Volume 2 covers Heydrich's involvement in the Jewish question, the Wannsee Conference, his posting as Acting Reichsprotector for Bohemia-Moravia, his assassination in 1942, his State Funeral, and the precarious life of his wife Lina and their family until her death in 1985. A major feature of this work is the unique collection of over 700 photographs, many never seen before, assembled by the authors during a decade of intensive research. Already very scarce.

19581st edition, original cloth, 4to. Viii + 36 + iv pages, illustrations throughout. In Yiddish. The beginning of the Second World War is simultaneously the beginning of suffering, pain, death, martyrdom and heroism of the Jews of Czestochowa. In the early morning hours of Friday, the first of September, 1939, Nazi Germany attacked Poland. And already on the third day, at nine o'clock in the morning on Sunday, the third of September, the Nazi motorized units began to penetrate Czestochowa and, one day later, there began the first slaughter which received the name Bloody Monday. Monday, the fourth of September, under the false accusation that Jews had shot at Germans, a horrible pogrom took place that lasted three days. The first victim was Naftali Tenenboym, owner of a button factory at 7 Pilsudskego Street. The second victim was Luzer Prafart, who was known under the nickname Po Pientsh ([Polish for] five each) . The third, Katz, a carpenter by occupation, was known as a leader in the artisans unions. Among the numerous victims in the three day pogrom was the son of the Rosh-Hayeshiva [Head of the Talmudic academy], Yakubovitsh. The first three days of Nazi rule over Czestochowa were marked by bloody murder and looting. Jewish economic life was completely paralyzed. Cultural, social, and political life, including the entire school system, was completely dissolved. Falling like hail, there were repressions and decrees aimed at psychologically choking Jewish life, the theft of Jewish property, the exploitation of the Jewish labor force for free, and the placing of Jewish life into a lawless situation.

19451st Edition Reprint. Original Wrappers. 8vo. 11 pages ; 22 cm. Holocaust-era publication. Published with Tolerance is Not Enough, reprinted from The Pilot on May 26, 1945, which gave a glowing review of Bishop Richard Cushings speech. This is the first published speech given by Richard Cushing after he became Archbishop of Boston in 1944. He served as Archbishop of Boston from 1944 to 1970, and was created a cardinal in 1958. Cushing's main role was as fundraiser and builder of new churches, schools, and institutions. He was on good terms with practically the entire Boston elite, as he softened the traditional confrontation between the Catholic Irish and the Protestant upper-class. Cushing built useful relationships with Jews, Protestants, and institutions outside the usual Catholic community. He helped presidential candidate John F. Kennedy deflect fears of papal interference in American government if a Catholic became president. Cushing's high energy level allowed him to meet with many people all day, often giving lengthy speeches at night.
