Brandeis University
In this engaging account, the first president of Brandeis tells how many formidable obstacles to launching a new university without initial capital endowment or any hope of alumni support for at least a generation were overcome; how academic goals were drafted, distinguished faculty recruited, and chairs endowed; and how a dilapidated campus was expended into a well-organized plant of some 90 buildings. In this revision of the 1976 edition, Abram L. Sachar expands the scope of his commentary and imbues it with a critical depth and objectivity that comes from 20 additional years of active involvement in the service of the university.
An Ambiguous Partnership
While the history of Zionism in America is well documented, the history of non-Zionist activities in America is less well known. An Ambiguous Partnership now tells that story. Dr Menahem Kaufman gives a detailed account of how American public figures and Jewish organizations, self-defined as non-Zionists, were influenced by changing attitudes in American society and government towards the Zionist struggle and by the problem of Holocaust survivors in Europe. This study describes the non-Zionists involvement in the political processes in Washington and the United Nations, which eventually brought about the establishment of the State of Israel.
