Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the early history of Jewish Americans, from 1654, when Dutch Jews traveled to New Amsterdam. The author shows that Jews played an important and active role in the development of New York from the very beginning, when they were one of the few religious groups tolerated besides the Dutch Calvinist majority, to the present day where they have made huge contributions to American society. This history also digs deep into the early tensions between different Jewish communities, including the divide between German and Eastern European Jews, and commonalities in the face of discrimination. The book also covers the establishment of the first Jewish congregation in North America and the founding of the first synagogue in New York.
