The first collected edition of Herzl's six Zionist Congress Addresses. First collection of Six Congress Addresses of Theodor Herzl.

This private-press edition of Herzl's speeches given at the first six Zionist World Congresses was published in commemoration of the tenth anniversary of his death and to coincide with the Leipzig Zionist Convention, which was held on 14th and 15th June 1914, where Salman Schocken (1877-1959), who as a publisher cooperated frequently with the Drugulin printing house, handed to each delegate a copy of this book. In 1915, Schocken, together with Martin Buber, had founded the Zionist journal 'Der Jude'. He built the Schocken Library in Jerusalem and bought the local newspaper 'Haaretz' in 1937.

The speeches included are as follows:
First Congress Address, delivered in Basel, August 29th, 1897.
Second Congress Address, delivered in Basel, August 28th, 1898.
Third Congress Address, delivered in Basel, August 15th, 1899.
Fourth Congress Address, delivered in London, August 13th, 1900.
Fifth Congress Address, delivered in Basel, December 26th, 1901.
Sixth Congress Address, delivered in Basel, August 23th, 1903.
