OUTLINES OF JEWISH HISTORY.

From the Return from Babylon to the Present Time,
1890.

With Three Maps, a Frontispiece and Chronological Tables,

By LADY MAGNUS.

Revised by m. friedländer, ph.d.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

---

The entire work is one of great interest; it is written with moderation, and yet with a fine enthusiasm for the great race which is set before the reader's mind.—Atlantic Monthly.

We doubt whether there is in the English language a better sketch of Jewish history. The Jewish Publication Society is to be congratulated on the successful opening of its career. Such a movement, so auspiciously begun, deserves the hearty support of the public.—Nation (New York).

Of universal historical interest.—Philadelphia Ledger.

Compresses much in simple language.—Baltimore Sun.

Though full of sympathy for her own people, it is not without a singular value for readers whose religious belief differs from that of the author.—New York Times.

One of the clearest and most compact works of its class produced in modern times.—New York Sun.

The Jewish Publication Society of America has not only conferred a favor upon all young Hebrews, but also upon all Gentiles who desire to see the Jew as he appears to himself.—Boston Herald.

We know of no single-volume history which gives a better idea of the remarkable part played by the Jews in ancient and modern history.—San Francisco Chronicle.

A succinct, well-written history of a wonderful race.—Buffalo Courier.

The best hand-book of Jewish history that readers of any class can find.—New York Herald.

A convenient and attractive hand-book of Jewish history.—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

The work is an admirable one, and as a manual of Jewish history, it may be commended to persons of every race and creed.—Philadelphia Times.

Altogether it would be difficult to find another book on this subject containing so much information.—American (Philadelphia).

Lady Magnus' book is a valuable addition to the store-house of literature that we already have about the Jews.—Charleston (S. C.) News.

We should like to see this volume in the library of every school in the State.—Albany Argus.

A succinct, helpful portrayal of Jewish history.—Boston Post.

"THINK AND THANK."

A Tale for the Young, Narrating in Romantic Form the Boyhood of Sir Moses Montefiore.

with six illustrations.

By SAMUEL W. COOPER.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

A graphic and interesting story, full of incident and adventure, with an admirable spirit attending it consonant with the kindly and sweet, though courageous and energetic temper of the distinguished philanthropist.—American (Philadelphia).

think and thank is a most useful corrective to race prejudice. It is also deeply interesting as a biographical sketch of a distinguished Englishman.—Philadelphia Ledger.

A fine book for boys of any class to read.—Public Opinion (Washington).

It will have especial interest for the boys of his race, but all school-boys can well afford to read it and profit by it.—Albany Evening Journal.

Told simply and well.—New York Sun.

An excellent story for children.—Indianapolis Journal.

The old as well as the young may learn a lesson from it.—Jewish Exponent.

It is a thrilling story exceedingly well told.—American Israelite.

The book is written in a plain, simple style, and is well adapted for Sunday School libraries.—Jewish Spectator.

It is one of the very few books in the English language which can be placed in the hands of a Jewish boy with the assurance of arousing and maintaining his interest.—Hebrew Journal.

Intended for the young, but may well be read by their elders.—Detroit Free Press.

Bright and attractive reading.—Philadelphia Press.

The story is a beautiful one, and gives a clear insight into the circumstances, the training and the motives that gave impulse and energy to the life-work of the great philanthropist.—Kansas City Times.

We should be glad to know that this little book has a large circulation among Gentiles as well as among the "chosen people." It has no trace of religious bigotry about it, and its perusal cannot but serve to make Christian and Jew better known to each other.—Philadelphia Telegraph.

CHILDREN OF THE GHETTO

BEING

PICTURES OF A PECULIAR PEOPLE.

---

by i. zangwill.

---

The art of a Hogarth or a Cruikshank could not have made types of character stand out with greater force or in bolder relief than has the pen of this author.—Philadelphia Record.

It is one of the best pictures of Jewish life and thought that we have seen since the publication of "Daniel Deronda."—London Pall Mall Gazette.

This book is not a mere mechanical photographic reproduction of the people it describes, but a glowing, vivid portrayal of them, with all the pulsating sympathy of one who understands them, their thoughts and feelings, with all the picturesque fidelity of the artist who appreciates the spiritual significance of that which he seeks to delineate.—Hebrew Journal.

Its sketches of character have the highest value.... Not often do we note a book so fresh, true and in every way helpful.—Philadelphia Evening Telegraph.

A strong and remarkable book. It is not easy to find a parallel to it. We do not know of any other novel which deals so fully and so authoritatively with Judæa in modern London.—Speaker, London.

Among the notable productions of the time.... All that is here portrayed is unquestionable truth.—Jewish Exponent.

Many of the pictures will be recognized at once by those who have visited London or are at all familiar with the life of that city.—Detroit Free Press.

Moral purity, nobility of soul, self-sacrifice, deep affection and devotion, sorrow and happiness all enter into these biographies, and the interest felt in their perusal is added to by the warmth and sympathy which the author displays and by his cultured and vigorous style of writing.—Philadelphia Record.

His methods are at once a simplification and expansion of Josephus and the Talmud, stories simply told, faithful presentation of the virtues, and not infrequently the vices, of characters sometimes legendary, generally real.—New York World.

The lives here given are interesting in all cases, and are thrilling in some cases.—Public Opinion (Washington, D.C.).

The volume is one of universal historic interest, and is a portrayal of the early trials of Jewish women.—Boston Herald.

Though the chapters are brief, they are clearly the result of deep and thorough research that gives the modest volume an historical and critical value.—Philadelphia Times.

It is an altogether creditable undertaking that the present author has brought to so gratifying a close—the silhouette drawing of Biblical female character against the background of those ancient historic times.—Minneapolis Tribune.

Vol.	I.	From the Earliest Period to the Death of Simon the Maccabee (135 B.C.E.).

Vol.	V.	In preparation.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

Professor Graetz's History is universally accepted as a conscientious and reliable contribution to religious literature.—Philadelphia Telegraph.

Aside from his value as a historian, he makes his pages charming by all the little side-lights and illustrations which only come at the beck of genius.—Chicago Inter-Ocean.

The writer, who is considered by far the greatest of Jewish historians, is the pioneer in his field of work—history without theology or polemics.... His monumental work promises to be the standard by which all other Jewish histories are to be measured by Jews for many years to come.—Baltimore American.

Whenever the subject constrains the author to discuss the Christian religion, he is animated by a spirit not unworthy of the philosophic and high-minded hero of Lessing's "Nathan the Wise."—New York Sun.

It is an exhaustive and scholarly work, for which the student of history has reason to be devoutly thankful.... It will be welcomed also for the writer's excellent style and for the almost gossipy way in which he turns aside from the serious narrative to illumine his pages with illustrative descriptions of life and scenery.—Detroit Free Press.

One of the striking features of the compilation is its succinctness and rapidity of narrative, while at the same time necessary detail is not sacrificed.—Minneapolis Tribune.

Whatever controversies the work may awaken, of its noble scholarship there can be no question.—Richmond Dispatch.

If one desires to study the history of the Jewish people under the direction of a scholar and pleasant writer who is in sympathy with his subject because he is himself a Jew, he should resort to the volumes of Graetz.—Review of Reviews (New York).

SABBATH HOURS

THOUGHTS

By Liebman Adler

---

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS

Rabbi Adler was a man of strong and fertile mind, and his sermons are eminently readable.—Sunday School Times.

As one turns from sermon to sermon, he gathers a wealth of precept which, if he would practice, he would make both himself and others happier. We might quote from every page some noble utterance or sweet thought well worthy of the cherishing by either Jew or Christian.—Richmond Dispatch.

The topics discussed are in the most instances practical in their nature. All are instructive, and passages of rare eloquence are of frequent occurrence.—San Francisco Call.

The sermons are simple and careful studies, sometimes of doctrine, but more often of teaching and precept.—Chicago Times.

He combined scholarly attainment with practical experience, and these sermons cover a wide range of subject. Some of them are singularly modern in tone.—Indianapolis News.

They are modern sermons, dealing with the problems of the day, and convey the interpretation which these problems should receive in the light of the Old Testament history.—Boston Herald.

While this book is not without interest in those communities where there is no scarcity of religious teaching and influence, it cannot fail to be particularly so in those communities where there is but little Jewish teaching.—Baltimore American.

The sermons are thoughtful and earnest in tone and draw many forcible and pertinent lessons from the Old Testament records.—Syracuse Herald.

They are saturated with Bible lore, but every incident taken from the Old Testament is made to illustrate some truth in modern life.—San Francisco Chronicle.

They are calm and conservative, ... applicable in their essential meaning to the modern religious needs of Gentile as well as Jew. In style they are eminently clear and direct.--Review of Reviews (New York).

Able, forcible, helpful thoughts upon themes most essential to the prosperity of the family, society and the state.—Public Opinion (Washington, D.C.).

OLD
EUROPEAN JEWRIES

By DAVID PHILIPSON, D.D.

---

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS

A good purpose is served in this unpretending little book, ... which contains an amount and kind of information that it would be difficult to find elsewhere without great labor. The author's subject is the Ghetto, or Jewish quarter in European cities.—Literary World (Boston).

It is interesting ... to see the foundation of ... so much fiction that is familiar to us—to go, as the author here has gone in one of his trips abroad, into the remains of the old Jewries.—Baltimore Sun.

His book is a careful study limited to the official Ghetto.—Cincinnati Commercial-Gazette.

Out-of-the-way information, grateful to the delver in antiquities, forms the staple of a work on the historic Ghettos of Europe—Milwaukee Sentinel.

He tells the story of the Ghettos calmly, sympathetically and conscientiously, and his deductions are in harmony with those of all other intelligent and fair-minded men.—Richmond Dispatch.

A striking study of the results of a system that has left its mark upon the Jews of all countries.—San Francisco Chronicle.

He has carefully gone over all published accounts and made discriminating use of the publications, both recent and older, on his subject, in German, French and English.—Reform Advocate (Chicago).
