History of the Jews in America

by Peter Wiernik

This comprehensive history chronicles the experiences of Jewish people in the Americas, spanning from the earliest exploration days to the 20th century. Author Peter Wiernik, a prominent Yiddish journalist, draws upon his vast knowledge to trace the Jewish journey through distinct periods, including the Spanish and Portuguese era, the colonial years, the Revolutionary War, and the Civil War. Wiernik sheds light on the challenges and triumphs faced by Jewish immigrants as they settled in the New World, shaped their communities, and contributed to the development of American society.
