The Epic Of A People
The Story Of The Jews
by A. Addleson
2nd Printing 1946
"This popularly-written yet comprehensive history is noteworthy for the balance it strikes among the biblical, medieval and modern periods. Following 60 pages descriptive of the Roman rule, the author proceeds to recount all the important intellectual and political achievements and vicissitudes of the Jewish people prom the talmudic period to the development of the great European communities. Thereafter it omits nothing of the later devcelopments in Jewish history, even including mention of the recent war situation and the status of Jewish refugees.Second edition, revised to 1945." From the Preface to the Second Edition - "......Over a million Jews served in the Allied Armies in every sphere of operations, sharing its defeats, its bitter casualties, its victories and its honours, but in the memorable phrase of Pierre van Passen.....the Jews remain still [as] "The Forgotten Ally"....In many lands where the menacing tread of the conqueror has hardly ceased to echo, anti-Semitism once more rears its head. In the lands of the free, Great Britain, the United States, Canada, South Africa, racial incitement against the Jews flaunts itself openly. And what of Palestine, the once promised Homeland of the Jews? .....What of the future? Is statesmanship to prove itself without courage or vision on the Jewish question? Are the Jews in the Diaspora once more to be left to the mercy of minority treaties? Is the promise of a Jewish Homeland to be nullified in the face of power politics? On the answer to these questions depends the fate of what is left of World Jewry.....For in spite of the almost mortal blow that Jews have sustained, there is within Western Jewry, within the Jews of Palestine, and not least within a newly conscious Russian Jewry, the strength to revitalize the Jewish people as a potent factor in the community and comity of nations."
