Better Understanding Between Christian and Jews in America

"Soon after the representatives of the nations gathered in Paris to formulate the Peace Treaty which was to end wars, it became evident, even to the most casual observer, that the victorious nations (all except the United States) were not bent upon creating a foolproof peace, but on obtaining for themselves the fruits of victory. National antagonisms, racial antipathies, map aggrandizement, motivated the representatives to the Conference. it was apparent that here was not an end to war, but a selfish striving which was bringing to the surface all the types of national, racial and religious embitterment which had characterized the pre-war European scene. The Editor of The American Hebrew had the opportunity to make a first-hand study of this situation." Illustrated with few b/w reproductions of photographs and documents. Age wear, scuffing and staining on binding. Head and tail of spine slightly bumped and rubbed. Ex-libris of Rabbi M. A. Lazowick on inside of front board.
