Contents include: They That Walk In Darkness, Transitional, Noah's Ark, The Land Of Promise, To Die In Jerusalem, Bethulah, The Keeper Of Conscience, etc. Zangwill (1864-1926) was a leading figure in cultural Zionism during the 19th century, as well as close friend of father of modern political Zionism, Theodor Herzl. In later life, he renounced the seeking of a Jewish homeland in Palestine. A notable portion of Zangwill's work concentrated on ghetto life and earned him the nickname the Dickens of the Ghetto. Other notable works by this author include: Dreamers of the Ghetto (1898), Grandchildren of the Ghetto (1892 ), and Children of the Ghetto: A Study of a Peculiar People (1892).This classic work is being republished now in a new edition complete with an introductory chapter from English Humourists of To-Day by J.
