Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In early February 1949, American Jewrys most popular and powerful leader, Abba Hillel Silver (18931963), had summarily resigned from all his official positions within the Zionist movement and had left New York for Cleveland, returning to his post as a Reform rabbi. During the second half of the 1940s, Silver was the most outspoken proponent of the founding of a sovereign Jewish state. He was the most instrumental American Jewish leader in the political struggle that led to the foundation of the State of Israel. Paradoxically, this historic victory also heralded Silvers personal defeat. Soon after Israels declaration of independence, Silver and many of his American Zionist colleagues were relegated to the sidelines of the Zionist movement. Almost overnight, the influential leaderone who had been admired and feared by supporters and opponentswas stripped of his power within both the Zionist and the American Jewish arenas. Shiffs book discerns the various aspects of the striking turnabout in Silvers political fate, describing the personal tragic story of a leader who was defeated by his own victory and the much broader intraZionist battle that erupted in full force immediately after the founding of Israel. Drawing extensively on Silvers own archival material, Shiff presents an enlightening portrait of a critical episode in Jewish history. This book is highly relevant for anyone who attempts to understand the complex homelanddiaspora relations between Israel and American Jewry.
