4.0 out of 5 stars Brought back fond memories, August 19, 2007

This review is from: Almost Englishmen: Baghdadi Jews in British Burma (Paperback)
I am a Baghdadi Jew who lived in Rangoon, Burma as a young child and boy in the 1950's. I found this book very interesting and brought back fond memories of my childhood. This book is well researched and should be of value to anyone interested in Jewish history.

4.0 out of 5 stars Engaging look at unexpected community, September 19, 2011

This review is from: Almost Englishmen: Baghdadi Jews in British Burma (Paperback)
Jews in Burma are perhaps not the best known ethnic community in the world, but this short, engaging, and very well-researched book tells you all you might want to know about one of the world's least known but extremely interesting communities, that once numbered in the thousands. Good read for those already fascinated by Burma, and a good contribution to the study of the Jewish diaspora.
