Synopsis "Leeds and its Jewish Community: A History (in English)"
This is the definitive and most comprehensive history of the third-largest Jewish community in the United Kingdom. It explores both the influence the city of Leeds has had on the community and the impact the community has made in the life of Leeds. Based on original research and building on previous local studies this collection provides a thorough and up-to-date contribution filling a gap in both Jewish and urban historiography. It combines detailed narrative with acute analysis which reveals the fascinating story of social and economic transformation in a modern city. The book begins by identifying the national, local and demographic context of the Jewish community in Leeds; the second section provides a broad sweep of the historical narrative from the late nineteenth century to the end of the Second World War; and the third section offers in-depth analyses of a number of key themes, including heritage, philanthropy and urban space. The book will be of interest to history, sociology and geography students, and will be an essential book for courses on modern urban history, migration and social mobility. It will also appeal to the general reader, particularly citizens of Leeds and anyone with a connection to the city.
