Book Reviews of The Lower East Side (New York City)

Book Review: A Journey Back
Summary: 5 Stars

These photographs are so evocative that they bring readers back in time. For those of us whose ancestors walked these streets, it's literally like walking into the past. The streets are crowded; we're lucky the horrid smells can't come through the page. There was a re-creation of an East European small Jewish city on these streets, and its all here.

--Lawrence J. Epstein, author of At the Edge of a Dream: The Story of Jewish Immigrants on New York's Lower East Side, 1880-1920 (Arthur Kurzweil Books)
