New York's Jewish Jews
Attractively produced book traces an era of unprecedented creativity and achievement in literature, the visual arts, architecture, music, dance, theater, and social and political thought in a series of illustrated essays by respected scholars, critics and commentators. Traces the development of a distinctive American orthodoxy by first and second generation immigrant Jews in New York City during the 1920's and 1930's. Choosing from a variety of Western and traditional influences, the community established new behavioral, cultural, and institutional parameters. Paper edition (unseen), $12.95.

Bassman Family Genealogy
Researching Barak Bassman’s maternal and paternal ancestors takes us back nearly 300 years to small villages in Poland and in the Russian Empire, where these men and women struggled to eke out a living, to live a Jewish life, and to endure the perils of anti-Semitism. Later we track the family’s emigration to the “Golden Land” of America, as well as the horrible deaths of those who remained in Europe and perished in the Holocaust. A close look into some family members’ archival documents from America reveals the tragic consequences of the abject poverty in which they lived. Yet throughout, our research of Barak Bassman’s ancestors has documented their tenacity to survive and make a better life for their children and future generations.
