Excellent Entry Point Researching Jewish Geneology,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Unbroken Chain: Biographical Sketches and Genealogy of Illustrious Jewish Families from the 15th-20th Century, Volume 1 & 2 (Hardcover)
Most people may have difficulty researching their Jewish geneology, since most available works are in Hebrew. This is especially true if one's geneology is Rabbinic in nature.This book deals with only certain families and is rather terse. BUT....for what it touches on, it opens to its readers a whole new world. Its subject is the Katzenellenbogen family - which had ties into almost every major European Rabbinic family. Its sources are the same Hebrew books that many of us could not penetrate. This book is extremely useful if you have even minor ties to any of these families. It may very well lead you to even more sources regarding your family's past.
