Herzl, Hechler, the Grand Duke of Baden and the German Kaiser 1896-1904" Tel Aviv 1961, Numbered Edition
Herzl, Hechler, the Grand Duke of Baden and the German Kaiser 1896-1904 dozens of letters handwritten by Theodor Herzl to the three and letters in which they responded to Herzl, and that they wrote among themselves about the Zionist movement, discovered by Hermann and Bassi Elran, printed in facsimile. Tel Aviv 1961. Edition numbered 393.
The book contains dozens of letters Theodor Herzl wrote to the grand duke Frederik of Baden and Wilhelm II, kaiser of Germany, and their letters in response to him. The letters are described and dated in print. Introduction by Alex Bain. On the one hand, these letters demonstrate support for the Zionist movement and stress the benefits of the entire region should a Jewish state be established. On the other hand, traces of popular antisemitism can be discerned towards the Jewish nation, which did not skip over these two, despite their support for Herzl's initiative.
35 cm. Title page and introduction in Hebrew and parallel English (opening from left to right). Very fine condition except for the paper jacket, lacking the Hebrew side.
