Breslau: Th. Schatzky, 1896 A very good copy bound in buckram and issued separately over three decades and brought together here in one thick volume. Each part has continuous numbering; each section covers the Jews in Schlesien, pages 1-40 covers the period to 1335; Section II, 1335-1400; then comes 1400-1427; followed by 1427-1526; then the Habsburg dynasty to the end of the 16th century, all of this is clearly completed to page 249 with what appears to be a set of appendices each printed on different kinds of paper, and the set omniously concludes with the last section dated 1932. The bound volume is in a sturdy library buckram biding nut no marks indicating it as an ex-library volume. It would be virtually impossible to collect all of these items into one volume but it was done here and bound right before the rise of Hitler's rise to power. Shipping for this volume in the US would be $5 media mail; $9.50 priority; overseas air parcel would be $34.45.
