A Viennese newspaper correspondent sets down a pamphlet in 1896, ninety-six pages arguing that Europe will continue to produce anti-Jewish persecution and that the only answer is a Jewish polity established under international charter. Theodor Herzl had covered the Dreyfus trial in Paris and watched the crowds shout death to the Jews on a Catholic boulevard.

The blurb, the gist, the why of the day and the work itself are in the app. The first button needs it on this device; the second gets it there.
