Sinopsis:

An exceptional copy; fine in an equally fine dw, now mylar-sleeved. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered. Literally as new.; 352 pages; Description: 352 p. ; 31 cm. Subjects: Forverts (New York, N.Y.) --Jews --New York (State) --Social conditions. Summary: A photographic account of Jewish life in America draws on the archives of the premiere national Jewish newspaper, Forward, in a visual tribute that pairs essays by leading intellectuals, including Leon Weiseltier and Deborah E. Lipstadt, with images of such subjects as a shtetl beauty contest, Lower East Side pushcart markets, and labor rallies.

Críticas:

"Each picture is worth well more than a thousand words. They provide a window to important times in our history that are long gone but will live in our hearts and minds forever." -- Sid Caesar "If a photograph of the Jewish soul exists, it will be discovered in the metal filing cabinets of the Forward. Until then, we have this book: here is what it looked like, and how it felt, to be a Jew in the Twentieth Century." -- Nicole Krauss "Not only an amazing book, but an invaluable artifact and a work of art." -- Jonathan Safran Foer
