Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since the arrival of approximately a dozen German-Jewish immigrants in the 1840s, the Jewish community of Dayton has actively contributed to the betterment and welfare of the "Gem City." Jewish Community of Dayton recalls forgotten stories of Arthur Welsh, the first Jewish airplane pilot; orphan turned social reformer Rabbi David Lefkowitz; Golda Meir's impassioned 1948 visit on behalf of the new Jewish state; and opera star Jan Peerce giving the final performance of his career with the acclaimed Beth Abraham Youth Chorale. This book illustrates how Dayton's Jews have responded and adapted to challenges ranging from the Great Flood of 1913 to resettlement of immigrants throughout the 20th century, from sacrifices for the state of Israel to activism in the civil rights era.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many stories of Jewish Dayton's past have faded over time. Others, painful to recall, may have been intentionally buried. All are sure to surprise new generations. The Jews of Dayton drank wine during Prohibition, debated Zionism, fought the Klan and joined the battle for civil rights in the trenches. Balancing tradition and modernity across eras, they navigated the American dream and faced challenges often strikingly similar to those we face today. Marshall Weiss--founding editor and publisher of the Dayton Jewish Observer and project director of Miami Valley Jewish Genealogy & History--reaches back nearly two centuries to unearth forgotten episodes of Jewish life in Ohio's Miami Valley.

Book Synopsis Jewish Community of North Minneapolis by : Rhoda Lewin
Download or read book Jewish Community of North Minneapolis written by Rhoda Lewin and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2001 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories of the Jewish community of North Minneapolis are an important part of the rich and diverse mosaic of North Minneapolis history. By 1936, there were more than 16,000 Jew in Minneapolis, and 70 percent of them lived on the North Side. The Jewish Community of North Minneapolis presents an intriguing record of the earliest beginnings of Jewish communities in the city. Through the medium of historic photographs, this book captures the cultural, economic, political, and social history of this community, from the late 1800s to the present day. The Jews in North Minneapolis enjoyed a busy social and cultural life with their landsmanschaften, and shopped together at the kosher butcher shops and fish markets, grocery stores and bakeries, clothing stores, barber shops, restaurants, and other small businesses that had sprung up along Sixth Avenue North and then Plymouth Avenue. Including vintage images and tales of the community-Hebrew schools, synagogues, and social groups-this collection uncovers the challenges and triumphs of the Jewish community.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For Ohio's bicentennial in 2003, the Religious Experience Advisory Council of the Ohio Bicentennial Commission was established to commemorate and celebrate the state's diversity of religions and faith traditions. The end result of the council's efforts, Religion in Ohio tells the story of Ohio's religious and spiritual heritage going back to the state's ancient and historic native populations, and including the westward migration of settlers to this region, the development of a wide variety of faith traditions in the years preceding the mid-twentieth century, and the arrival of many newer immigrants in the last fifty years, each group bringing with it cherished traditions. Documenting the religious pluralism in Ohio and the impact faith communities have had on the state, this book includes chapters on the historical experiences and beliefs of over forty Christian groups, as well as Native American, Jewish, Islamic, Hindu, Buddhist, Sikh, Baha'i, Jain, and Zoroastrian faiths.

Book Synopsis Jewish Community of Syracuse by : Barbara Sheklin Davis
Download or read book Jewish Community of Syracuse written by Barbara Sheklin Davis and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2011 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While New York City became home for most of the Jewish immigrants who crossed the Atlantic, others journeyed farther, seeking freedom and fortune. The city of Syracuse, easily reached by the Erie Canal, became the next port of call for some. It offered opportunities, open roads, and a small but ever-growing Jewish community. This history traces the development of the Jewish community of the Salt City from its beginnings in the early 18th century, when a handful of peddlers gathered weekly to share a Shabbat meal, to a much larger community that numbered 11,000-12,000 at its peak a century later. The Syracuse Jewish community is a microcosm of the history of Jews in America and is both distinctive and iconic in nature.

Book Synopsis Jewish Communities on the Ohio River by : Amy Hill Shevitz
Download or read book Jewish Communities on the Ohio River written by Amy Hill Shevitz and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2007-08-17 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An engaging regional history with immense national significance . . . An excellent chronicle of the minority experience in small town America.” —Ava F. Kahn, author of Jewish Voices of the California Gold Rush In Jewish Communities on the Ohio River, Amy Hill Shevitz chronicles the settlement and development of small Jewish communities in towns along the river. In these small towns, Jewish citizens created networks of businesses and families that developed into a distinctive, nineteenth-century middle-class culture. As a minority group with a vital role in each community, Ohio Valley Jews fostered American religious pluralism as they constructed a regional identity. Their contributions to the culture and economy of the region countered the anti-Semitic sentiments of the period. Shevitz discusses the associations among the towns and the big cities of the region, especially Cincinnati and Pittsburgh. Also examined are Jewish communities’ relationships with, and dependence on, the Ohio River and rail networks. Jewish Communities on the Ohio River demonstrates how the circumstances of a specific region influenced the evolution of American Jewish life. “Far better composed and contextualized than most local histories of smaller Jewish communities now in print, Amy Shevitz’s book does a commendable job of detailing local developments in terms of the broader picture of both American Jewish history and Ohio Valley history.” —Lee Shai Weissbach, author of Jewish Life in Small-Town America: A History “Shevitz’s study provides both corroboration, and corrective, to the standard historiography of American Jewry . . . Shevitz provides a fascinating glimpse into the nature of small-town Jewish life, and the role Jews played in shaping their world.” —Ohio Valley Quarterly

Book Synopsis From Ararat to Suburbia by : Selig Adler
Download or read book From Ararat to Suburbia written by Selig Adler and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 526 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Only a century and a half has passed since the first contacts between a handful of Jews and the frontier outpost that eventually grew into the city of Buffalo; yet their subsequent relationship exemplifies every significant facet of Jewish life in America. The story begins with the attempt by the colorful Moredcai M. Noah to found his Jewish asylum, Ararat, in western New York, and it concludes with a description of a populous, self-aware, unified community striking out for the suburbs. The authors, themselves citizens of Buffalo, have succeeded in making their story alive, vibrant, panoramic. Perhaps this is due to the grandstand seat from which they have witnessed the energy and vision that have characterized the ultimate development of the community. It is also likely that their success in bringing the Buffalo Jewish story so vividly to life is a direct result of their method. For these professors chose to describe the community by describing the men and women who created it, against the background of the national and international socio-religious forces that shaped its growth. Its Geist is evoked by introducing the reader to the inner qualities of the people who shaped it. This history of the Jews of Buffalo thus differs substantially from virtually all similar accounts of other American-Jewish communities. More than any of the others it is written as a synthesis: between the American environment and the world-wide Jewish heritage of the successive waves of immigrants, among the various institutions as step by step they combined to create a sense of community, and, above all, among the leaders and personalities whom the book describes in considerable detail. From Ararat to Suburbia is filled with interesting and sharply-drawn vignettes Each of these pen portraits, emerging out of the subject's origin and New World status, lays bare his hopes, his strivings and his manner of expressing them. In one sense, of course, this is a success story. American-Jewish history altogether, and especially the history of its medium-sized communities, records the rapid advances made by individual men and women who thereupon displayed remarkable community consciousness and a characteristically Jewish sense of common destiny. The Jews of both Buffalo and the United States have been portrayed as largely the subjects, rather than the objects, of modern historical forces. This volume stresses the serious social, religious and cultural problems that Jews have had to face on the Niagara Frontier. Our authors make these clear, and Buffalo's experience forms a prototype for Jewish communities elsewhere. Hence, the treatment in this volume transcends provincial narrowness. It is not just another account of another American-Jewish community. It is the epic of the Jew in American civilization." --
