For 130 years the arrival of the Jewish Chronicle in Jewish homes in Britain has rounded off the family week. It has become as much a part of a Jewish Friday night as are candles on the dining-table. It is a friend creating all the bonds of frankness, affection and sometimes irratibility that old friends expect to share. This anthology is a representative selection of readable items since 1841 raning from the historically momentous to the risible. During this long period of Jewish history, the J.C., as it is affectionately known, hjas recorded week by week the depths of persecution as well as the heights of the Jewish renaissance. But because it is the chronicler of everyday life, it also paid attention to the homely and the trivial in the lives of usual and unusual Jews. 257 pp. ( We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
