| More than a century after Herzl s death, the time has come to remove the various masks that still obscure his true face and to restore the Jewish and universal dimensions to his enterprise. Such is the goal of the present study by Dr. Yitshak Weisz, the product of more than eight years of research. This is not just another biography of Herzl, but an incisive critique of everything that has been written in the past and an invitation to take a close new look at the body of his work. From this novel and even bold new reading emerges a new Herzl, revitalized for the twenty-first century. |

San Diego Jewish World, February 2014, Donald H Harrison reviews this book. "This is both biography and historiography of the Zionist leader Theodor Herzl. Through an examination of what previous historians have said about Herzl, Weisz provides readers with highlights of Herzl’s life while correcting some of the most common misconceptions about the man who helped turn Zionism into an international movement."
