281 pages. Extensive footnotes. Fourth printing of the 1961 first edition. "In my own time, governments have taken the place of people. They have also taken the place of God... I have written chiefly of one government in this book - that of the new Jewish state of Israel... I am a Jew. I come of a long, never-broken line of Jews... They did well by the world... What happened to this fine heritage when the Jews finally fashioned a government of their own in Israel; what happened to Jews when they became Jewish politicians, what happened to a piety, a sense of honor, and a brotherly love that 2,500 years of anti-semitism were unable to disturb in the Jewish soul? My answers are in this book." - from Preface. Staining to front endpaper, otherwise contents clean and unmarked. Binding intact. A sound reading copy. Book

"Più vicina all’Africa che alle coste siciliane, denominata perla nera del Mediterraneo a causa delle sue rocce vulcaniche, isola unica nella sua particolarità, Pantelleria alterna paesaggi differenti e vari. Al centro la Montagna Grande che si erge maestosa, mentre Il lago di Venere, formato nel cratere di un antico vulcano e alimentato da numerose sorgenti termali spicca come un turchese incastonato in un lussureggiante giardino. Le coste sono aspre e frastagliate, gli approdi scarsi e pericolosi, ma il mare è cristallino e i fondali coloratissimi. Agli elementi naturali gli uomini hanno aggiunto i propri manufatti che ormai caratterizzano l’isola: i muretti a secco, i giardini panteschi e i dammusi, edifici rurali caratterizzati dai famosi tetti bianchi a cupola"
