Sephardi Lives: A Documentary History, 1700-1950 (Stanford Studies in Jewish History and Culture) Paperback – August 27, 2014

This book came in excellent condition and well worth the price. The book documents in personal detail the experiences of many sepharadim and the decline of Sephardic traditions after the expulsion from the Iberian Penninsula.

This is a precious & fascinating compilation of varied Sephardic Writings to savor & enjoy!!

What a wonderful and informative book!

An outstanding collection of materials, covering a wide range of topics and time periods, that together paint a vivid picture of an often-overlooked and understudied segment of the Jewish world. It's a must read both for the scholar interested in Sephardic history and the casual reader whose exposure to Jewish culture has been predominantly Ashkenazic in nature. Because the individual entries are relatively short and well-organized, it's an easy book to pick up and read a little bit at a time.
