The Zionist Idea, a clasic since its initial publication in 1959, is an anthology drawn from the writings of 37 of the leading thinkers of the Zionist movement, including Theodor Herzl, Ahad Ha-Am, Martin Buber, Louis Brandeis, Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook, Judah Magnes, Max Nordau, Ludwig Lewisohn, Solomon Schechter, Mordecai Kaplan, Vladimir Jabotinsky, Chaim Weizmann, and David Ben-Gurion.
This 1960 "historical analysis and reader" gathers the writings of the most important Zionists of the time. LJ's reviewer stated that the "stress is upon the men's ideas and works as they relate to Zionism. Although the profiles are brief, they are penetrating" (LJ 4/15/60). This edition contains a new introduction and afterword by scholar/editor Hertzberg.

reviewed The Zionist Idea: A Historical Analysis and Reader on March 25, 2009 The Zionist Idea: A Historical Analysis and Reader
This collection of essays from zionist thinkers from all ages is the bible of zionism studies, it covers almost all aspects of historical zionist thinking from atheist, secular, political and cultural side of it.By reading this book you can get a big picture of how zionism as an ideology evolves itself from myriads of persuasions conditioned by history, context and vested interest.
Here also you can find the best oracle rhetoric, for example Ben Gurion's "Our revolution is directed not only against a system but against destiny, against the unique destiny of a unique people...resisting fate is not enough, we must master our fate; we must take our destiny into our hands, this is the doctrine of Jewish revolution" [p.607-609).
I also think this book can be a good example of civic religion studies, where nationalism & politics sometimes blurred itself in the citation of scriptures presented with holy pathos.
