Isidor Bush

Who was Isidor Bush?

Isidor Bush or Busch was a man of letters, publisher, and viticulturalist.

His maternal great-grandfather was Israel Hönig, Edler von Hönigsberg, the first Jew raised to nobility in Austria. When seven years old Bush was seriously burned at a conflagration, suffering all his life from the effects; but he managed to rise above the resulting physical infirmities. Bush received his education from private teachers. His literary bent may have derived from the cultured circles and the minds with which he came in contact from boyhood.
