Description: This volume gathers an array of voices to tell the stories of Cleveland's twentieth century Jewish community. Strong and stable after an often turbulent century, the Jews of Cleveland had both deep ties in the region and an evolving and dynamic commitment to Jewish life.

Review Quotes: Cleveland has played an out-sized role in American Jewish history. The essays in this book help to explain why. Many of the themes taken up in this volume illuminate the American Jewish experience as a whole.--Jonathan D. Sarna "author of American Judaism: A History"
