Description | Some of Moses Gaster's papers regarding his Zionist activities. These include:
- Gaster's handwritten notes, possibly for a talk he was giving, providing his analysis of the region of Palestine and the prospects of potentially founding Jewish settlements there. - Handwritten notes from the Zionist Congress in Basle. - A typescript document (with annotations), entitled 'The Present Position of Zionism; A Talk with Haham Dr. Gaster' (9 pages). - The typescript text of a witness statement by Gaster, seemingly about the production of wine in Palestine by Jewish settlements. He mentions his own role in founding a "Jewish Colony", and the role of the Jewish Colonization Society (3 pages). - Various other notes and drafts. |
