The King's Jews: Money, Massacre and Exodus in Medieval England

In July 1290, Edward I issued writs to the Sheriffs of the English counties ordering them to enforce a decree to expel all Jews from England before All Saints' Day of that year. England became the first country to expel a Jewish minority from its borders. They were allowed to take their portable property but their houses were confiscated by the king. In a highly readable account, Robin Mundill considers the Jews of medieval England as victims of violence (notably the massacre of Shabbat haGadol when York's Jewish community perished at Clifford's Tower) and as a people apart, isolated amidst a hostile environment.

This is the first book written by a Jewish woman from the Indian community of Cochin. Filled with rich descriptions of Jewish life in an exotic culture spanning several centuries, this work is both the story of the Jews of Cochin, India -- and the tale of one remarkable woman.

This book is a Cochin cake, full of secret goodies and unexpected surprises and mysterious tastes, exotic and familiar.

History of the Jews in Moderm Times

Lloyd Gartner provides a vivid description of the changing fortunes of the Jewish communication of the old world- Europe, the Middle -East, and beyond - and their gradual expansion into the New world of Americas. The book begins in 1650, when the Jewish population had fallen to roughly 1.25 million, less than one-sixth of its peak at the starts of the Christian era. Gartner leads us through the Enlightenment, the French Revolution, and into Emancipation, the dark shadows of anti-Semitism, and the Second World War, bringing us up to the present with Zionism and the founding of Israel.
