5.0 out of 5 stars The Jewish People in America, September 13, 2008
This review is from: The Jewish People in America: Five Volume Boxed Set (Hardcover)
Sponsored by the American Jewish Historical Society as part of the centennial celebration, The Jewish People in America chronicles Jewish life in the United States from colonial times to the present. Drawing on the talents of five historians, the series offers a balanced historical synthesis for general readers as well as professional historians. Each of the five volumes integrates common themes: the roots of Jewish immigrations, the experience of settling in America, economic and social adjustment, religious developments and educational aspirations, political involvements and, above all, the experience from generation to generation of what it means to be at once Jewish and American. The five books in the box set are: Volume 1 - A Time for Planting: The First Migration, 1754 - 1820 by Eli Faber. Volume 2 - A Time for Gathering: The Second Migration, 1820 - 1880 by Hasia R. Diner. Volume 3 - A Time for Building: The Third Migration, 1880 - 1920 by Gerald Sorin. Volume 4 - A Time for Searching: Entering the Mainstream, 1920 - 1945 by Henry L. Feingold. Volume 5 - A Time for Healing: American Jewry since World War II by Edward S. Shapiro.
