Writings
Much of Eldad’s voluminous writings has been translated into English, mostly by Zev Golan. Among his works: Chronicles ISBN 965-7108-15-2. The Jewish Revolution appeared in 1971, and was reissued in 2007. Free Jerusalem includes a chapter by Eldad (“Meanwhile, A European Interlude”) about Polish Jewry on the eve of war. Israel: The Road to Full Redemption, a translation of an article in Sulam, was published in 1961 and is today a virtually unobtainable brochure. A website is devoted to disseminating articles by Eldad and his underground colleagues. His memoirs of the time he led the underground, The First Tithe, were translated and first published in 2008. God, Man and Nietzsche includes a lengthy examination of Eldad’s philosophy of history and excerpts from an article about Nietzsche written by Eldad in the underground. Stern: The Man and His Gang has a biogprahy of Eldad and a detailed comparison of his political ideas and goals with those of other Lehi leaders.

Famous quotes containing the word writings:
“Accursed who brings to light of day
The writings I have cast away.”
—William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)
“If someday I make a dictionary of definitions wanting single words to head them, a cherished entry will be “To abridge, expand, or otherwise alter or cause to be altered for the sake of belated improvement, one’s own writings in translation.””
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“Even in my own writings I cannot always recover the meaning of my former ideas; I know not what I meant to say, and often get into a regular heat, correcting and putting a new sense into it, having lost the first and better one. I do nothing but come and go. My judgement does not always forge straight ahead; it strays and wanders.”
—Michel de Montaigne (1533–1592)
