Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most American Jews today will probably tell you that Judaism is inherently democratic and that Jewish and American cultures share the same core beliefs and values. But in fact, Jewish tradition and American culture did not converge seamlessly. Rather, it was American Jews themselves who consciously created this idea of an American Jewish heritage and cemented it in the popular imagination during the late nineteenth and mid-twentieth centuries. History Lessons is the first book to examine how Jews in the United States collectively wove themselves into the narratives of the nation, and came to view the American Jewish experience as a unique chapter in Jewish history. Beth Wenger shows how American Jews celebrated civic holidays like Thanksgiving and the Fourth of July in synagogues and Jewish community organizations, and how they sought to commemorate Jewish cultural contributions and patriotism, often tracing their roots to the nation's founding. She looks at Jewish children's literature used to teach lessons about American Jewish heritage and values, which portrayed--and sometimes embellished--the accomplishments of heroic figures in American Jewish history. Wenger also traces how Jews often disagreed about how properly to represent these figures, focusing on the struggle over the legacy of the Jewish Revolutionary hero Haym Salomon. History Lessons demonstrates how American Jews fashioned a collective heritage that fused their Jewish past with their American present and future.
Download or read book Haym by George written by Jackson Grin and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2016-05-25 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many people know George is George Washington, the father of our country. Many, however, do not know the details of his brilliant career as a soldier, his stand on slavery, and his fervor in establishing the freedoms we hold dear. Nor do they know that despite his superb leadership we would have lost the revolutionary war and our chance to become an independent nation if it were not for foreign intervention. Few know Haym Salomon, the savior of our country. Who was he, and why was he important? He was a Jewish Polish immigrant who was mainly responsible for financing the American Revolutionary War. He was caught by the British and sentenced to death as an American spy. How he escaped the hangmans noose and became a friend of George Washington is part of the story. George Washington said, Haym Salomon provided the funds for our army when everyone, including all the colonies, refused. If it were not for Haym Salomon, we could not have fought the Revolutionary War and won our independence, nor survived as a newborn nation. The lives and times of George Washington and Haym Salomon are inextricably woven into the fabric of the Revolutionary War, our fight for independence, and the ideals upon which this nation was founded. This book, therefore, encompasses much of the magnificent contributions of these two patriots and the actual events that led to the difficult birth, and early survival, of the United States of America and the principles forever enshrined to protect our democracy.
