Brandeis, Golda Meir, Ben Hecht, and Ron Dermer)—who reflect the intellectual and social revolutions that Zionism and Americanism brought to the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn some cases, the stories have been forgotten; in other cases, misrepresented; in still others, not yet given their full due. But they are central to the miraculous recovery of the Jewish people in the twentieth century. Taken together, they recount both a people's return to its place among the nations and the impact on history that a single individual can make.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eMore than a century ago, after studying the early Zionist texts, Brandeis concluded that Jews were the \"trustees\" of their history, charged to \"carry forward what others, in the past, have borne so well.\" The stories in this book—recording the extraordinary efforts of extraordinary individuals that created the modern state of Israel and then sustained it—reinforce Brandeis's observation for our own time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe story of Zionism, and its interaction with Americanism, is a continuing one.
