Abstract:
"Chana Maisel: Agricultural Training for Women", presents an unknown chapter in the history of the Zionist settlements in the Land of Israel: the story of the female pioneer- the professional agriculturalist, who wanted to work in mixed farming, in collective settlements as well as family farms. Chana Maisel played a central role in establishing frameworks for women to receive agricultural training in pre-State Israel so that the women could fulfill their dreams and make a living. With vision, perseverance, and professional knowledge, Maisel created a vast new opportunity for women to contribute to the Zionist agricultural development of the Land of Israel.
