Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Memphis Jewish Community Center: Seventy Years of Jewish Connection is the history of a revered anchor institution, and it is also about remembering. After all, memory is more than tradition; it is the foundation of Judaism. Mentioned 169 times in the Torah, it is a religious imperative because remembrance is the vehicle for transmitting values and ethics, honoring those who have gone before us, and shaping what we are today and what we can be tomorrow. This book embraces both history and memory to share a story that began with teenage boys motivated by an audacious dream, which evolved into the institution that is a national model for what a Jewish community center should be. Today, looking at the bustling Memphis Jewish Community Center in Tennessee and the remarkable inventory of programs, it is hard to imagine a time when there was no place where every Jew had a place of connection to gather, exercise, play, learn, create new friendships, and build bridges across established divides.

Book excerpt: Some might expect from the title that this would be a book about Baptists, but instead it's the story of Jewish life in Memphis from the antebellum period through the 1960s, and of how and why Jews developed a respectful relationship with others in the heart of the Bible Belt. The Jews not only took care of their own, but also became contributors to their city by holding positions of municipal leadership, actively supporting Memphis' cultural and philanthropic activities, and supporting racial integration. As a historian and member of the Jewish community in Memphis, Lewis, U. of Vanderbilt and Memphis, was commissioned to write this history by the Jewish Historical Society of Memphis and the Mid-South.
