Jubilee Book of the Settlement Rishon Le'Zion, its History since its Foundation in 1882 until 1907 – Jerusalem 1907 - Dedication by the Author, one of the Founders of the Settlement, to Dr. Chaim Weizmann – Most Rare!
A fascinating book about the history of the settlement Rishon Le'Zion, which was founded in 1882 and was the first settlement founded by the immigrants of the First Aliyah.
The book before us details the history of the settlement since its foundation until 1907 and its material and spiritual condition: the wineries and wines, the climate, the land and more.
(Five years later, a second part of the book was published, surveying what had happened in the settlement during these five years).
The author of the book us Reb Aharon Mordechai Freeman (1846-1925), one of the ten founders of the settlement. Freeman planted the first vineyard of the settlement and in 1883, founded its first school. He remained in the settlement even during times of hardship. Freeman was head of the settlement's committee for four years. He was among the founders of its synagogue, Beit Midrash, Talmud Torah and Benefit Society. In addition, he founded the first court of justice in the settlement and served as judge.
A dedication by the author appears on the title page: "As an eternal keepsake in honor of the president of the Zionist committee, Mr. Dr. Chaim Weizmann. Rishon Le'Zion, the fourth of Iyar 1918. By the author Aharon Mordechai Freeman".
