Warsaw pocket guidebook

Dylewski, Adam

THIS IS THE HARDCOVER VERSION.  The Polish Jews left behind an extremely rich culture with fascinating customs and impressive monuments.  The remnants of that world which no longer exists are the subject of the guidebook Polish Jews and Their Culture.How can one possibly describe such a complex and colourful tradition in just a few hundred pages?  Maybe the best way is to follow this example: "My grandfather walked with a limp.  One day he was asked to say something about his teacher.  And so he began to reminisce about the pious Baalshem and how he would jump and dance while praying.  And granddad stood up and became so involved in the story that he himself started jumping and dancing so as to demonstrate exactly how his master used to do it.  From that moment on my grandfather never limped again.  This is the way to tell a story."  ...... Tales of the Chasidim by Martin Buber; English version based on translation into Polish by P. Hertz.
