The Scopus Publishing Company
announces the formation of the
"Zionist Book of the Month Club"
which issues a book a month. The
whole series of books can be sub-
scribed to for $6. Single books
at $1 each and double books at
4:2. The first book of this month
is "Theodor Herzl, Excerpts from
the Diaries." These excerpts, se-
lected by Mordecai Newman, have
been translated ably by Maurice
Samuel and Joel Lipsky. Pierre
Van Paassen and Emanuel Neu-
mann have respectively provided
the introduction and preface.
Never before has Herzl's diar-
ies appeared in book form in the
English language.
Theodor fierzi, the prophet and
founder of Modern Zionism, was
a distinguished writer and journa-
list. As Paris correspondent of the
"Neue Freie Presse" of Vienna,
he was in France at the time of
the Dreyfus case. It was this
event that launched him on that
great historic enterprise, the
founding of the Zionist move-
ment. Special attention should be
given to his conversation with
Baron de Hirsch (June 2, 1895,
page 5-7) and to an undelivered
speech to the Rothschild's (Page
15-16) which describe the cir-
cumstances of Herzl's espousal of
Zionism and how he foresees the
future of European Jewry. Note-
worthy too is his interview with
the Grand Duke of Baden of
April 18, 1900 (page 71-74), where
they discussed the struggle be-
tween England and Germany.
The editor, Mordecai Newman,
has had wide publishing exper-
ience in Palestine, where he
helped to build the modern He-
brew literature.
The second book to appear will
be "The Story of Zionism" by
Lotta Levensohn.
