(1065 km)
Czernowitzers...
This year I'm on the road again, by motorail train and motorcycle, from the
Lower Rhine region, east/southeastwards. First stop: Vienna! Fellow member
Prof. Amy Colin's statement on the forgotten Czernowitzer Josef Drach made
me curious: "In 1920, Josef Drach, a wealthy Jewish businessman and art
dealer from Czernowitz, developed detailed plans for establishing a European
Union with Vienna as its capital." Here is now my preliminary research
result

.html
more detailed findings to follow and to be be shared with the Czernowitz
Jewish Museum on site. Additionally there is most probably a connection
between Josef Drach and our fellow member Cornel Fleming, keeping in mind
his photo posted (at the bottom) at:
http://czernowitz.ehpes.com/czernowitz6/cornel/fleming8.html
Cornel, back to you!? Well, in times of Brexit and temporarily rising
European unification skepticism, it's quite hard to recall Josef Drach's
visionary concept of a Europe at peace, but anyway the historic development
proved him perfectly right.
Enjoy the posting and join me please as my - virtual - tavel companions over
the next about five weeks!
