About this Item

New York: J. & J. Harper, 1831. Cloth, 12mo. 264 pages. Stereotype Edition. Harper's Family Library No. 1. Second edition; first published 1830. Illustrated with engravings. Foldout map of Jerusalem. Henry Hart Milman was a brilliant Oxford historian; his History of the Jews "brought down on him the censure of the Church. This history is aggressively rationalistic; it treats the Jews as an Oriental tribe, and all miracles are either eliminated or evaded. He was nevertheless presented with a piece of plate by some representative Jews in recognition of his sympathetic attitude. His history was republished in 1863 and 1867." (JE) Singerman 0493; Rosenbach 322. SUBJECT(S) : Jews - History. OCLC lists 9 copies worldwide of this edition. Ex-library. Bookplate of Martha H. Maltby on inside front cover.
