This book is a collection of two dozen essays published over the
past four decades on American Jewish history and culture. They
discuss the role that Jews have played in American culture, sports,
politics, business, and religion, as well as the nature of American
antisemitism. The essays argue that the Jewish experience in
America has been unique and this uniqueness has encouraged Jews to
define their Jewish identity in multiple ways. In no other country
has Judaism and Jewishness taken on so many diverse forms. While
America has not been the promised land for Jews, it has been a land
of promise. Jews have prospered in America and become part of the
social, cultural, political, and economic mainstream. But whether
Judaism and Jewish identity have also prospered is another
question.
