Description
At the turn of the 20th century, more than 40 percent of the world’s Jews lived within the Russian empire, almost all in the Pale of Settlement. From the Baltic to the Black Sea, the Jews of the Pale created a distinctive way of life little known beyond its borders. This lecture is made possible through the generosity of Harry and Marjorie Tobias.
