History of Zionism, 1600–1918, by Nahum Sokolow – London, 1919 – Inscribed by the Author
History of Zionism, 1600–1918, by Nahum Sokolow. London: Longmans, Green & Co., 1919. English and some French. Two volumes.
Both volumes of this book deal with the concept of Zionism in the political and literary context in England and France, and follow the sources and development of the Zionist idea and of the concept of the "Return of Israel" in Christianity over the past several centuries. The volumes contain several plates: portraits of figures, a photograph of the laying of the cornerstone of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, a group photograph of the Katowice Conference (1884), and more.
An inscription in English by the author, Nahum Sokolow, appears at the beginning of the first volume (dated: Paris, July 1919).
Volume 1: Lii, 313 pp. + [23] plates. Volume 2: Lxiii, 480 pp. + [9] plates. 22.5 cm. Good condition. A few stains. Minor tears along the connection between the endpapers and the bindings. Signature on the title page of the first volume.
