WEIZMANN, Chaim. TRIAL AND ERROR. London: Hamish Hamilton (1949).
First  Edition.  Fine  Association Copy INSCRIBED and  SIGNED  on  the
title  page by the first president of Israel to the son of one of  the
greatest     presidents    of     the     United   States:   "To   FDR
Jr/Affectionately/Chaim  Weizmann." Of his relationship with  American
Jews,  the  historian  Arthur  M. Schlesinger Jr.  said  of  President
Roosevelt:  "For a long time [Roosevelt] was a hero. No president  had
appointed  so many Jews to public office. No president had  surrounded
himself with so many Jewish advisers. No president had condemned anti-
Semitism  with  such  eloquence  and   persistence."  Some  foxing  to
endpapers. Very Good, lacking the dustwrapper.                $3500.00
