    This remarkable memoir by Menachem Mendel Frieden illuminates Jewish experience in all three of the most significant centers of Jewish life during the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.

  • Isaac's Armyby Matthew Brzezinski

    Head of Zeus 2013; US$ 14.57

    1930s Warsaw was a thoroughly cosmopolitan, even swinging city. Larger than Chicago, it was host to a rich Jewish cultural life. It seemed inconceivable that all this was about to be swept away, but then came the dark events of September 1939. As the Nazi invasion of Poland began, a ragtag army calling itself the Jewish Resistance Force fell into... more...

    Wiley 2013; US$ 24.95

    This book is a comprehensive account of how the Jews became a diaspora people.

  • The Catholic Church and Antisemitismby Ronald Modras

    Taylor and Francis 2013; US$ 46.95

    Interwar Poland was home to more Jews than any other country in Europe. Its commonplace but simplistic identification with antisemitism was due largely to nationalist efforts to boycott Jewish business. That they failed was not for want of support by the Catholic clergy, for whom the ''Jewish question'' was more than economic. The myth of a Masonic-Jewish... more...

  • The Nazi, the Painter and the Forgotten Story of the SS Roadby G. H. Bennett

    Reaktion Books 2013; US$ 29.00

    In 2006 a long-forgotten canister of film was discovered in a church in Devon, a county located in the southwestern corner of the United Kingdom.

The... more...
