Updated edition with a new introduction by the author.
First published in 1984, The Transfer Agreement stunned readers worldwide with its revelations of a pact between Zionist leaders and Hitler's Third Reich. Concluded in 1933, the agreement transferred 60,000 Jews and $100 million to Palestine on the condition that Zionist organizations would halt their economic boycott of Nazi Germany - a strategy that openly threatened to topple Hitler's government, then only in its first year of power.
