Publishers cloth. 8vo. XIX, 363 pages. 23 cm. First edition. This book explores reactions to issues viewed as of major importance by the editors of The American Hebrew of New York in the years 1879-1884, 1894-1898 and 1903-1908. Since its inception in 1879 and until World War 1, the Hebrew was a leading Anglo-Jewish weekly, which helped to mold the structure and attitudes of the community's English-speaking sectors. Responsible for it was the unique character of the nine-member founding editorial board, mostly of national prominence in religious and civic life. They remained anonymous until 1929. Desire for total integration into American society as well as fear of assimilation and pride in Jewish particularism produced a community in conflict. (Publishers description) . Inscribed by the author in English (and Hebrew) on first endpage. Subjects: Jews - United States. Jews, East European - United States. Immigrants - United States. Jews - Europe, Eastern - Migrations. United States - Emigration and immigration. United States - Ethnic relations. Fresh. Good + condition. (AMR-39-21)

"Barbara Loftus is a British artist with roots in Berlin. Based on her mother Hildegard´s childhood memories, Barbara Loftus depicts the life of her assimilated Jewish grandparents Herta and Sigismund Basch in Berlin before 1933. She visualizes the horror and terror that disrupted the idyllic, middle class neighborhood of Schöneberg with the Nazis' rise to power. Hildegard´s parents and brother were deported to Auschwitz on December 14, 1942; she survived by emigrating to Great Britain. Barbara Loftus` mother kept these memories private all her life. Only in old age did she begin to share these traumatic experiences with her daughter." (Stiftung Stadtmuseum Berlin).
