Jews in Gotham – New York Jews in a Changing City, 1920–2010: City of Promises

Autor Jeffrey S. Gurock
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 7 ian 2015
Jews in Gotham follows the Jewish saga in ever-changing New York City from the end of the First World War into the first decade of the new millennium. This lively portrait details the complex dynamics that caused Jews to persist, abandon, or be left behind in their neighborhoods during critical moments of the past century. It shows convincingly that New York retained its preeminence as the capital of American Jews because of deep roots in local worlds.

Recenzii

"Jeffrey Gurock’s masterful and sensitively drawn survey offers a penetrating blend of distinguished scholarship and acute observation from someone who has lived the life and knows well its complexities and nuances. Drawing upon a wide range of opinions and shades of Jewishness, he has fashioned a vivid, richly detailed, and endlessly fascinating narrative about variegated Jewish life in the iconic diaspora metropolis. Balanced, engrossing, and learned. Read and enjoy!"-Thomas Kessner, Distinguished Professor of History, City University of New York Graduate School"In 1900, the Jewish population of New York was despised, impoverished, and ghettoized. A century later, it had become the most accomplished, the most prosperous, and the most successful ethnic group in the nation. This is the story of that journey and that achievement, and no one has told it with more authority and sensitivity than Jeffrey Gurock. And as they used to say on the subway advertisement, you don't have to be Jewish to love this book."-Kenneth T. Jackson,editor-in-chief, The Encyclopdia of New York City
