Product Description
The Other 1492: Jewish Settlement in the New World
- Used Book in Good Condition
Mention 1492 and most people conjure up images of three stout ships making their way west. But 1492 was the year in which the vibrant Jewish community of Spain came to an abrupt and tragic end. This book details the expulsion of the Jews from Spain and Portugal and their early immigration to the New World. European anti-Semitism followed the Jews but the newcomers persevered and made a home for themselves in the New World. Starred Review and Editors Choice, Booklist, NCCS/CBC Notable Childrens Trade Book and American Bookseller Pick of the Lists, 1990.
