"Jews have called New Jersey home since the late seventeenth century - and they currently make up almost 6 percent of the state's residents. Yet, until now, no book has paid tribute to the richness of Jewish heritage in the Garden State. The Jews of New Jersey: A Pictorial History, redresses this lack with a lively narrative and hundreds of archival and family photographs - many rare - that bring this history to life."--BOOK JACKET.
