JUDAH, S. B. H.
Samuel B. H. Judah was a well-known writer of New York City in the early part of the present century. He wrote a novel called The Buccaneers, and a work entitled Gotham and the Gothamites, both of which reflected on the society of New York at that time, and caused the author to be sued for libel and his works suppressed. His plays were performed in England as well as America.
