Shmuel HaShimshoni (1879-1939), born in Rumania to his father Dov Samsonoff, among the "enlightened" Jews of Rumania. In 1896, he immigrated to Israel and was among the founders of the first Jewish commune. He went to Egypt due to illness, and was active in the Cairo Jewish community and among the founders of the first French weekly Zionist periodical. While he was still in Edinburgh, he served as an honorary member of the high commission of the Freemasons, and when he came to Israel, he was active in establishing the basic principles of the movement in the Land of Israel. He was killed by a bullet in Haifa on his way to work. Refer to extensive coverage of his work in Encyclopedia of Pioneers and Builders of the Yishuv.
Both booklets are rare, and do not appear in the National Library. Fine condition.
