Jew Made In Englandby Anthony Blond Read by Clive Roslin (1 Cd) A fascinating autobiography of one of Anglo-Jewry's most interesting characters, Anthony Blond. He's a member of the Marks and Spencer dynasty. He's been described as 'one of the great eccentrics' and is without doubt one of the most innovative and idiosyncratic publishers of the 20th century. He is the man who introduced to British readers such diverse talents as Harold Robbins and Jean Genet, Spike Milligan and Graham Greene. His life story makes as good a read as any novel.
Michael Shapiro an American lawyer, has written about the lives of 100 of the most influential Jews of all time. Shapiro ranks them in numerical order according to his own opinion. These very detailed and necessarily compact descriptions give the reader an insight into a variety of fields where Jews have made their mark e.g. In religion, philosophy, literature, art and music, science and medicine. Among the list are names such as Karl Marx, Daniel Mendoza, Anne Frank, Harry Houdini, Stephen Spielberg, Henrietta Szold and many individuals who may be better known to the American public. This informative book is a good way to be introduced to some very special individuals. No. 1642 Jewish Folk Tales;The 8 Lights of Chanukahby Leo Pavlat Read by Frieda Bier (1 Cd) This beautifully illustrated book of Jewish folklore is a celebration of the ways of thought, unique customs, practical values and spiritual beliefs that form the Judaic religion and way of life. The talks, legends and fables that comprise this collection have their origins in different times and places and reflect the richness and variety of Jewish culture.
Read by Anita Boston (1 Cd) This book gives a full analysis of the Jewish immigration from Eastern Europe to Britain and tells of the routes to England and the immigrants' travel experiences. Once here they worked very hard. The great majority were tailors, working in small, dirty and overcrowded workshops. Their labour became known as the 'sweating system'. Others were shopkeepers and peddlers and the Jewish labour movement tried, with limited success to improve working conditions as well as pay. The immigrants lived in the East End of London where rents were high and the dwellings crowded. Gradually they moved to more favourable areas such as Dalston and Hackney. These immigrant areas possessed a special character and carried on an active religious and cultural life. This is an interesting chronicle of immigrants' life in the early 20th century and very different to the experiences of today's immigrants. No. 1618 Jewish London : An Illustrated Historyby Dr Gerry Black Read by Anita Boston (1 Cd) This book begins with the arrival of a small group of Jews with William the Conqueror. Despite their expulsion in 1290 the influence of the Jews on life in the capital has grown, especially after the large-scale immigration of the 19th and 20th centuries. Dr Black gives a fascinating account of their housing, their work, school, hospitals etc and his narrative gives a vivid portrait of outstanding individuals who made noticeable contributions to the Jewish community and to the wider history of the capital. The story comes right up to the present day. This book will hold the attention of everyone who is interested in the Jewish community and the cultural diversity of the capital.
This books extols the virtues of Jewish women throughout history and up to the present day. The ladies involved are all Orthodox educators and give detailed information on their chosen subject always stating how important it is to continue the word of the Torah to the letter. No. 1334 Jews In Australia, Theby Suzanne D Rutland Read by Anita Boston (1 Cd) The influence of the Jews on the Australian population has been immense. A dozen Jewish convicts arrived with the first fleet in 1788. They were forerunners of a comfortable Anglo-Jewish community which was dramatically challenged by a wave of European immigrants fleeing from Nazi persecution. In recent decades, new groups from places as diverse as the Soviet Union, Israel and South Africa have brought their own measure of cultural challenge and influence. This book explores what makes the Jews of Australia different from other Jewish communities around the world.
