The dominant theme of this tenth volume (July 1920–December 1921) of the Weizmann Letters, as of Weizmann's political career as a whole, is one of struggle. Three major conflicts which absorbed most of Weizmann's energies and thoughts in the period are reflected: the struggle with the followers of Justice Louis D. Brandeis within the World Zionist Organization; the struggle over the provisions and ratification of the Palestine mandate; and the struggle over the northern and eastern borders of the Jewish National Home in Palestine.
