t, “This volume is a brilliant pictorial review of the 140-year history of the Jews of Cleveland and an incisive treatise on the Jewish internal, external and community relationships...Photographs are the ‘time machines’ of historical research. These in particular, going back to 1839, offer a kaleidoscopic meld of past life styles, events, individual and family backgrounds, and moments of poignancy – all set in a geographical and chronological framework...The ‘contemporary narrative’, written by Sidney Z Vincent, reviews the decades and analyzes the process of maturation of Jewish community life in Cleveland following World War II.
