Deutsche Juden in Amerika: Buergerliches Selbstbewusstsein und juedische Identitat in den Orden B'nai B'rith und Treue Schwestern, 1843-1914 (Transatlantische Historische Studien)

The history of German Jews in America has until now mainly been studied as an area of modern history. This volume now analyzes the influence that German Jews exerted in the development of an "American Judaism" with a marked bourgeois identity, which began with the first German-Jewish mass immigration to the United States in 1830.
