In association with Tel Aviv University. Diary of the former leader of the Jews of Romania in the inter-war period. Filderman supervised the process of obtaining equal rights for Jews following WWI. This volume covers 1900-1940, and deals with the fate of the last eastern European Jewish community to be emancipated, and its struggle for civil rights amid antisemitism and ''Greater Romania'' between the two world wars, the Iron Guard, first pogroms, and more.
