This book the author writes in his foreword reports the successive eras of Palestine's story from the Hebrew at Sinai to the modern Zionists... Fosdick speaks of the motives that have made Zionism so kindling to Jewish imagination: The long cherished dream of restoration to their ancient homeland has become the more alluring to Jewish people as the hardships of their life elsewhere, their confinement in European ghettoes, their persecutions and pogroms, have shut against them other doors of hope. The treatment of Jews in Christendom makes one of the most appalling stories of truculence and bigotry that history knows. Even now for millions of Jews in eastern Europe life is hardly tolerable. The author, however, is aware of the growing conflict between Zionist aspirations and those of the Arab population: Zionism to the Jew is an idealistic movement, seen from the Arab side it is predatory, and one who gains entree to the Arabs' confidence will hear bitter words expressing their desire to convert the Jewish national home into the Jewish national cemetery.
