Militant Zionism in America: The Rise and Impact of the Jabotinsky Movement in the United States, 1926-1948

"Militant Zionism in America recounts the fascinating and little-known story of the activists who formed a controversial faction of American Jewry during the 1930s and 1940s. These militants - whose leaders included an Academy Award-winning screenwriter and several future members of the Israeli parliament - bought newspaper advertisements all over the country, actively lobbied Congress, made valuable alliances in Washington, staged dramatic protest rallies, and smuggled guns to the forces fighting in Palestine to establish the state of Israel."--BOOK JACKET.
