Greetings, I've received a query form Valerie Rosenson, daughter of Harriet Rosenson, who wrote on Jewish history and Jewish musicians in China. Please find the query below and reply directly to Valerie Rosenson if you are interested. The list of books is attached. I'll cross-post on HaSafran; thank you all for your patience with that. Email: [email protected] Phone: (203) 218-1656
Original query: *Good morning. My mother, Harriet Rosenson, was very interested in the history of Jews in China and wrote a chapter in Jonathan Goldstein's Book Jews of China about Jewish musicians in China. She passed away several years ago and I am trying to deal with my parents' very large book collection. While I was able to donate many of her general books about China to the University of Connecticut, I am looking for someplace to donate her books on Chinese Jews. I don't know if [your libary] would be interested in these books. If not, can you recommend someplace else I can reach out to? I have attached the list of the books I have located so far. (If you would be interested in books on Chinese politics and arts in general, I can also forward a list of those books as well.) * Thanks, Rachel *And they shall beat their swords into plowshares* *And their spears into pruning hooks:Nation shall not take upSword against nation;They shall never again know war.* Rachel L.
