Excerpt from The Jew in South Africa Such prejudice, the respect enjoyed by the Jewish community of South Africa is not at all com mensurate with its services and its sacrifices for this country. So far, next to nothing has been done to collect the various data, statistics and early events of the various Jewish settlements.

Zionist Federation, with this paper on The Jew in South Africa. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
