Description - American Jewish Women and the Zionist Enterprise by Shulamit Reinharz
Despite a historical record that shows sustained involvement of American Jewish women with early Zionism and Palestine, this topic has received scant scholarly attention. A major contribution to Zionist history, women's history, and American history, American Jewish Women and Zionism offers a much needed clarification to the historical record. Divided thematically, American Jewish Women and Zionism examines representative figures, events, and themes of the prestate era. Some essays are concerned with significant personalities, such as Golda Meir and Emma Lazarus, while others focus on the pivotal role played by American Zionist women's organizations. The remaining essays reveal the multidimensionality of the relationship of American Jewish women and Zionism.
