Out Of Kishineff: The Duty Of The American People To The Russian Jew (1903) is a non-fiction book written by William Curtis Stiles that sheds light on the plight of the Jewish community in Russia at the turn of the 20th century. The book takes its name from the infamous Kishineff pogrom of 1903, which saw the massacre of hundreds of Jews in the city of Kishineff (now Chisinau, Moldova). Stiles argues that the American people have a moral obligation to help their Russian Jewish brethren, who were facing persecution and discrimination under the Tsarist regime. He details the various forms of oppression that the Jews were subjected to, including restrictions on their movement, education, and employment opportunities. The author also highlights the role of the American Jewish community in advocating for their Russian counterparts and calls upon the US government to take a more active role in promoting the rights of Jews in Russia. He provides examples of successful lobbying efforts by American Jews, such as the appointment of a Jewish ambassador to Russia and the establishment of relief funds for victims of the Kishineff pogrom. Overall, Out Of Kishineff is a passionate plea for compassion and action towards the Jewish community in Russia, and a call to arms for the American people to stand up against injustice and discrimination. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on a dark period in Jewish history and serves as a reminder of the importance of solidarity and activism in the face of oppression.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
