Book Description

HADASSAH CONSTITUTION - The Women's Zionist Organization Hadassah Constitution. Pittsburgh: 1921. This 13 page printing of the Hadassah Constitution is in original paper wrappers and measures 5 3/4 inches x 3 1/4 inches. Very Good Condition. In 1912 at Temple Emanu-El in New York City, Henrietta Szold - scholar, teacher, journalist, editor, social worker and pioneer Zionist - sought more involvement for the Zionist cause. The new organization was called the Hadassah Chapter of the Daughters of Zion Study Circle, "Hadassah" being the Hebrew name of the famed Queen Esther. This is one of the Zionist organization's earliest Constitutions, printed on the eve of its 10th anniversary.
