Descripción
"This is a wonderful book... it should be widely reviewed."
-Eetta Prince-Gibson, award-winning journalist "A vast amount of research was invested in this book, and readers will enjoy the detailed reconstructions. Bar-Yosef provides rich, colorful descriptions of life in Prussia in the nineteenth century; Jewish life in central Europe; the world of German and English science; the nuances and rituals of British royalty; the political world of Britain before and after the First World War; and the network of hidden ties between Arabs, Bedouins, British, and Jews in Mandatory Palestine. This is a major work of historical research."
-Zur Ehrlich, Makor Rishon "This novel is very impressive. It provides a picture of non-Jewish and Jewish life, particularly the characteristic problems and prejudices that Jews encountered among non-Jews. The writing reflects great talent. The characters and the period come alive for the reader. I enjoyed it very much."
-Eli Amir, prize-winning author of Scapegoat, The Dove Flyer, and many more "The writing is outstanding, to put it mildly - restrained but precise. The historical information is rich and fascinating. The characters are interesting and moving, while the family story serves to illuminate history."
-Emuna Alon, author of If You Awaken Love, House on Endless Waters, and many more
