Brandeis, Weizmann and Einstein Joel Z Wagman

BRANDEIS, WEIZMANN and EINSTEIN: FOUR DAYS IN CLEVELAND; JUNE, 1921", is a brief absorbing overview dealing with the problematic, complications as to Zionism, and the nascent State of Israel which occurred in Zionist history, in the mainly unexplored decades from 1890 to mid 1921.. Of particular interest is the barely hidden -- and, now almost forgotten -- conflict between three major competing nations as to the future of Zionism, reaching a fateful climax over a four day period in Cleveland, during June, 1921.. The unusual role played by Albert Einstein -- as an unwitting pawn of Chaim Weizmann -- relative to those incisive events, precipitously led to the ejection of the famed American Jurist -- Louis Brandeis, from his leadership of the World Zionist Movement: creating a schism, which continued until 1948.
