Title stamped in silver foil on spine. Black and white illustrations done by Davis Te Selle. "Whitefoot is a mouse a small creature with 'elegant whiskers' and a 'reddish brindly tan' coat. She lives at the edge of the woods where she knows without a doubt that she exists at the center of the world. What she doesn't know is that not far from her safe haven there is a river a world of such size and magnitude that she cannot even imagine it small as she is. And she is quite small-so small that Wendell Berry asks us to 'think of going about with your eyes only an inch or two from the ground among grass stems thicker than your wrist maple and oak leaves that you can slip under and hide trees that touch the sky.' One day a great burst of rain floods down on Whitefoot lifting her in its currents and carrying her far from home. What happens next leads Whitefoot on a great adventure-one in which she must encounter new experiences and frightening challenges to her survival. The discovery of the universe around her and her own ability to survive wihthin it is a lesson that's sure to resonate with children and adults alike."-from front dust jacket flap.

Publisher's device on title page. Scarce and fascinating work on the Indian Jewish community the Bene Israel. Profusely illustrated with three folding maps twenty b/w photographic reproductions of portraits and views and various tables throughout. Contains nine appendices glossary of Jewish terms bibliography and index at rear. Dustjacket and binding with minor wear. On the Bene Israel: The Bene-Israel claimed to be descendants of the ten tribes of Israel who were shipwrecked off the west coast of India near Nawgaon on the Konkan Coast in the second Century B.C.E. Only seven couples survived and their offspring were cut off from other Jewish communities for centuries Sadok Masliyah 1994. They were Jews who escaped persecution in Galilee in the Second century BCE. They maintained the practices of Jewish Dietary laws circumcision and observance of Sabbath as a day of rest. In the 18th century they were discovered by traders from Baghdad and at that time they were practicing just a few outward forms of Judaism. However different theories suggest they arrived from Palestine Yemen Persia Babylon. Assimilation: The Indian caste system enabled the Bene-Israel to blend into the Indian Society without losing their own distinctive Jewish character. The caste system in India served to keep this Jewish group intact as the caste system did not allow intermarriage with other castes. Thus the Bene-Israelis were not totally assimilated into the Hindu society. Sadok Masliyah 1994 The community seemed to have eroded through emigration to Israel during the 1950's 1960's 1970's. In Israel a number of them prospered but faced sometimes subtle sometimes blatant discrimination and had to eventually fight a political battle to be recognized as Jews in instances of marriages with other ethnic groups. Frank Conlon 1994 The Bene-Israel community is found in Israel in cities such as Ashdod Lod Ramle Beersheba. The Orthodox Chief Rabbinate of Israel decreed in 1962 that marriage with the Bene Israel was permitted and the Israeli prime minister issued a statement in 1964 that the government of Israel regards them as Jews in every respect.

1950réf. 848881950. Keenan Joseph Berry 1888-1954. Brendan Francis Brown. Crimes Against International Law. Washington: Public Affairs Press 1950. x 226 pp. Original publisher's cloth bound hardcover some shelfwear fading to boards and spine in worn dust jacket. Internally clean. A good copy. $125. This work explains the legal basis and consequences of the post-World War II war crimes trials particularly focusing on the Tokyo War Crimes Trial. Keenan served as Chief Counsel for the United States at the Tokyo trial and Brown was a Juridical Consultant. They provide an historical analysis and recount the arguments used by both the prosecution and the defense. This work centers on the fundamental legal cleavage between the prosecution's contention for a moral notion of law and the defense's position that law is solely the command of a political sovereign. The authors argue that the Nuremberg and Tokyo trials established a body of rules that could serve as precedents for future crimes against international law. The book discusses the "rules of international law" as defined by these trials the reasons supporting them and the arguments presented in opposition offering an appraisal of the development and application of international law at that time. The book includes a bibliography on pages 216-222. "This volume by the Chief of Counsel of the Prosecution in the Tokyo Trial and a judicial consultant at the trial constitutes a philosophical and historical examination of the law and procedure of the war crimes trials in general and the Tokyo trial in particular. . The volume deserves particular study by those interested in the development of international criminal law and will take its place as an important contribution to the growth of international law in general.": Quincy Wright Journal of Criminal Law 41:803-805 806 cited in Marke A Catalogue of the Law Collection at New York University 1953 653. unknown
