Feminist pioneer of Israel, May 8, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Before Golda: Manya Shochat : A Biography (Paperback)
This is a must-read for anyone interested in feminism, Israel and/or Jewish history. You will get a real feeling of the struggles of the early zionists, particularly those of the women. Considering today's political climate, it is instructive to read about the early power struggles in the fledgling state of Israel. The writing is smooth, coherent, and doesn't read like a translation.

Interesting book for biography book report, March 15, 2006
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Before Golda: Manya Shochat : A Biography (Paperback)
I had to do a book report about a person who was one of the early Zionists. This was a really interesting book because it was one of the few I could find about a woman. Manya Shochat was very brave and had more adventures than most fictional characters. I learned a lot about the difficult times before Israel was a state. I recommend this book highly.
