Palestine at the crossroads
Farago, Ladislas
Published by G. P. Putnam's Sons, New York, 1937
First edition by journalist and historian Ladislas Farago, published in New York in 1937. An important book that reveals the political, social, and cultural reality in the Mandatory Land of Israel on the eve of the outbreak of World War II and the establishment of the state.
The book is accompanied by spectacular authentic photographs: Jews praying at the Western Wall, pioneers immigrating from Russia, armed Jewish guards, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Emir Abdullah, and images of everyday life in Jaffa and Jerusalem. Farago describes with sensitivity and sharpness the growing tension between the peoples and the feelings of the pioneers and Jewish settlers.
