From the dust jacket: "An elderly Chassidic rebbe sits in a wheelchair surrounded by his devoted followers. Suddenly one of them whispers in his ear 'Oberleutenant Birnbuam sic send regards.' The rebbe looks up and motions for the circle to split for a tall lanky man he saw more than thirty years earlier. To the man's 'Shalom Aleichem' the rebbe replies 'Yasher Koach. Yasher Koach for what you did for us in Landsberg.' The storekeeper in Meah Shearim asks 'Aren't you Oberleutenant Birnbaum ' Before his startled customer can even reply he is engulfed in a warm embrace as the storekeeper shouts to his amazed wife and son 'This man was our liberator!'

Experience his spiritual awakening in Young Israel America's first baal teshuvah movement. Meet R' Elchonon Wassserman R' Yitzchak Hutner and Mike Tress through the eyes of an American teenager.

Be there at the liberation of Buchenwald and Ohrduff. Hear the Klausenberger Rebbe rekindle the flame of emunah and bitachon in his overwhelming Kol Nidre drashah the first Yom Kippur after the liberation.

‎BIRNBAUM PIERRE‎

‎Lon Blum: Prime Minister Socialist Zionist‎

‎Yale University Press New Haven: 2015. Hardcover with dustjacket. Brand new book. Lon Blum 1872-1950 France's prime minister three times socialist activist and courageous opponent of the pro-Nazi Vichy regime profoundly altered French society. It is Blum who is responsible for France's forty-hour week and its paid holidays which were among the many reforms he championed as a deputy and as prime minister while acting as a proudly visible Jew a Zionist and eventually a survivor of Buchenwald. This biography fully integrates Blum's Jewish commitments into the larger story of his life. Unlike previous biographies that downplay the significance of Blum's Jewish heritage on his progressive politics Pierre Birnbaum's portrait depicts an extraordinary man whose political convictions were shaped and driven by his cultural background. The author powerfully demonstrates how Blum's Jewishness was central to his outlook and mission from his earliest entry into the political arena in reaction to the Dreyfus Affair and how it sustained and motivated him throughout the remainder of his life. Birnbaum's Lon Blum is a critical chapter in the larger history of Jews in France. One of France's most eminent political sociologists Pierre Birnbaum is professor emeritus at the Sorbonne. He is the author or co-author of seventeen books including Anti-Semitism in FranceThe Jews of the Republic and Geography of Hope. He is co-editor with Ira Katznelson of Paths for Emancipation. "Twenty years ago Pierre Birnbaum wrote a brilliant Political History of State Jews in France and now he has written a beautiful biography of the greatest of the state Jews. Lon Blum has never gotten the recognition he deserves as a French statesman a socialist leader and a proud Jew. That will change with this book."�Michael Walzer author of The Paradox of Liberation: Secular Revolutions and Religious Counterrevolutions "A succinct interesting and compelling overview of the life of French politician and former Prime Minister Lon Blum. Pierre Birnbaum draws on a rich series of primary sources that bring Blum and his adversaries to life."�Maud S. Mandel author of Muslims and Jews in France: History of a Conflict Yale University Press, New Haven: 2015 hardcover‎
