This review is from: The Golden Tradition: Jewish Life and Thought in Eastern Europe (Modern Jewish History) (Paperback)

This book first provides about an 80 page history of Eastern European Jewry. It then provides primary sources that illustrate the competing philosophies of the region. Before each excerpt is a biography of its subject and author, which are sometimes the same. There are excerpts from people you would expect - like Trotsky and Jabotinsky - but also many from people I hand't heard of before. I highly recommend it.
