Description

German and Hebrew. With foldout color map of Erez Israel

summary

Designed to attract German-Jewish immigration to Eretz Israel and acquaint the potential Oleh-Chadash with all aspects of life in the new Land, from Hebrew language skills to business opportunities. Also included is a personal questionnaire to be completed. Between 1933 (the year Hitler rose to power) and 1936, 24,000 German Jews arrived in Palestine, a high proportion of whom brought much needed professional qualifications (law, medicine, the arts, etc.) See EJ, Vol. IX, cols. 528-531.
