1818ref. 52523New York: C. W. Van Winkle 1818. First edition. Softcover. Nearly Fine. Octavo. 47 1 blankpp. Sewn at spine. Lacking plain wrappers. Faint foxing throughout else a nearly fine crisp copy. The author's first publication expressing his view on the origins and responsibilities of American Jewry being a transcript of the address delivered at the consecration of the new synagogue building of Shearith Israel the oldest Jewish congregation in America founded in 1745. His address received written responses from Thomas Jefferson John Adams and James Madison which were published in his 1819 book Travels in England France Spain and the Barbary States. A man with an astonishing and varied career Mordecai Manuel Noah 1785-1851 was an American sheriff playwright diplomat and journalist. He served as American consul in Tunis after 1813 where he was able in to assist in the rescue of a number of American sailors being held captive. Despite this success he was recalled in 1815 controversially under the claim by the Madison administration that his religion was an impediment to his duties. Among the most prominent American Jewish lay leaders of the early 19th century he is perhaps best known for his idealistic but ultimately failed attempt in 1825 to create a refuge community solely for Jewish Americans on land he purchased on New York's Grand Island in the Niagara River. Predating modern Zionism by many decades he styled this project "Ararat" after the mountain on which Noah's Ark came to rest in the biblical account. "After the failure of the Ararat experience Noah turned more strongly to the idea of Palestine as a national home for Jews" EJ 2nd ed. vol. 15 p. 291. From 1821-1823 he served as the 16th Sheriff of New York County the borough of Manhattan; the Surveyor of the Port from 1829-1833; and a judge of the Court of General Sessions in 1841. As a newspaper publisher and journalist Noah founded the New York Enquirer in 1826 and the Evening Star in 1834. In the realm of more imaginative literature he is considered the first major Jewish American playwright. Noah was featured as a character in the Ben Katchor graphic novel "The Jew of New York" 1999 and Gore Vidal's "Burr" 1973. Noah's cultural pride and surpremely optimistic view of his people's destiny is emphatically expressed in the present discourse: "Never were the prospects for the restoration of the Jewish nation to their ancient rights and dominion more brilliant than they are at present. There are upwards of seven millions of Jews known to be in existence throughout the world a number greater than at any period of our history and possessing more wealth activity influence and talents than any body of people of their number on earth. Let us then hope that the day is not far distant when from the operation of liberal and enlightened measures we may look towards that country where our people have established a mild just and honourable government accredited by the world and admired by all good men" p. 27.
