Cover with a black and white illustration of "Professor Ernst Wertheimer one of fifty-two noted refugee Jewish scientists and scholars now on the faculty of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem" The appeal for support includes statements from Chaim Weizmann Felix Frankfurter Felix M. Warburg and Albert Einstein who writes "If Hebrew University would be provided with better means we could avoid the sad result of having many of our gifted refugees in remote corners - their gifts becoming fruitless and of no value. Our youth ever hungry for education would know that they have a place where they could study without being treated as unasked guests - or worse. Our own sense of self-respect and dignity - if has not been warped through external influences - must impel us to vigorous support of our University." Printed under the auspices of the American Friends of Hebrew University in NY; the president of the Friends was A.S.W. Rosenbach.

196422787London/New York/Toronto: Abelard-Schuman. Very Good in Very Good dj. 1965 c.1964. 1st U.S. edition. Hardcover. good solid copy slight bumping to top corners; jacket lightly rubbed and a bit soiled very slight paper loss at several corners. INSCRIBED in Yiddish and SIGNED by the author on the ffep. See note at end of this description. Historical novel dramatizing the murder of Uriah the Hittite by King David "the climax of one of the ageless dramas of the Old Testament." Scarce novel also known as "The Hittite Must Die" by one of Israel's most distinguished men of letters who died in August 2004. He worked in many genres -- including drama children's literature poetry essays and literary criticism -- but was perhaps best known for his historical novels several of which are metaphorical examinations of problems facing modern Israeli society. Initially a leftist his political views underwent a great change after the Six-Day War; he served in the Knesset as a member of the Likud Party from 1977 to 1981 but broke with the party over the decision to return the Sinai to Egypt and subsequently was a co-founder of the right-wing Tehiya party. He was awarded the Israel Prize in 1988 in recognition of his contribution to Israeli literature. NOTE regarding the authorial inscription: although I do not myself read Yiddish a bookselling colleague has kindly provided me with confirmation that the inscription does in fact include the author's signature and that it appears to have been described in New York City "Manhattan" in 1967. Please contact me if you would like to receive a scanned image of the inscription prior to purchasing the book. Signed by Author . Abelard-Schuman hardcover books

An exceptionally beautiful facsimile five and a half years in the making it is printed on deluxe paper stock intended to reproduce the appearance of the original vellum. The gold highlights in the facsimile illustrations were applied by hand. The commentary by Bezalel Narkiss and Aliza Cohen-Mushlin provides a scholarly yet approachable historical context and artistic appreciation.
