Chaim Mazo is pleased to announce the publication of "In The Plains Of The Wilderness, Anthologies of Modern Jewish History."
In his review of this book, Rabbi Dr. Alex Jassen at the Center for Jewish Studies at the University of Minnesota says, this book is "a very readable survey of the major turning points and influential personalities in modern Jewish history...and the present state of Jews and Judaism." In the Plains of the Wilderness presents a fresh picture to understanding the trends and events in the modern Jewish world by examining significant episodes of Jewish history. A scholarly work, the author, Paul Azous, documents the Jews' transition from culture to culture, traversing through the wilderness. He supports his research with more than 800 annotations and has successfully culled the key events of the past 3,000 years to form a cohesive and thorough analysis of the modern era of Jewish history. Whether you are an educator examining new source material to introduce, or a library seeking an easy to understand book with a straightforward approach to understanding your Jewish cultural and religious heritage, In the Plains of the Wilderness will bring forth a clarity of history rarely grasped so quickly.
