Spectator"…his arguments are a provocation to fruitful thinking." Morning PostThis volume attempts to foresee the future of the Jews across the world, in the light of their previous history, the situation in Russia and the modern developments of Zionism.

Inter-marriage, Jewish nationalism, Jewish religion and reform movements are among the subjects discussed. 90ppVicisti, Galilaee?Or Religion in England: A Survey and a ForecastEdward B Powley Originally published in 1929"…a book to be read, thought over, and discussed by all Christians who are not afraid to take the shutters down."
