The third-largest Jewish community in Britain has been thoroughly documented in this comprehensive history, which fills a significant void in both Jewish and urban historiography. By combining the most recent research with earlier local studies, the book offers a thorough examination of the unique characteristics that shaped the community in Leeds. The book is divided into three sections: Context, Chronology, and Contours, which illustrate how Jews have impacted the city and how the city has impacted the community.
The late Victorian influx of impoverished migrants from the Russian Empire had a significant impact on a small community, which had successfully integrated into the city's social and economic fabric within two generations. More than a dozen authors contributed to this definitive history, and the editor provides both an introductory and concluding overview that brings the story up to the present day.
This book will appeal to historians and general readers alike, as it provides a rich and detailed account of the Jewish community in Leeds.
