"The skeleton of this book is my Hebrew publication Imigrantim: Ha-hagirah ha-yehudit le Eretz Israel bereshit ha-meah ha-esrim (Immigrants: The Jewish Immigration to Palestine in the Early Twentieth Century), which appeared in two editions in 2004 ... The present book is an expansion of the previous Hebrew editions." |

| Summary |
From the beginning of the twentieth century until World War I, about 35,000 Jews reached Palestine. Historians and social scientists have tended to apply different criteria to immigration to Palestine than those usual in the study of immigration. They have stressed the uniqueness of Jewish immigration to Palestine and the importance of Zionist ideology as a central factor in that immigration. This book seeks to present a more complex picture of both the causes of immigration to Palestine and the profile of the mass of immigrants who reached Jaffa in the years 1904-1914. |
