## Description

“Mr. Yerushalmi’s previous writings . . . established him as one of the Jewish community’s most important historians. His latest book should establish him as one of its most important critics. Zakhor is historical thinking of a very high order - mature speculation based on massive scholarship.” - New York Times Book Review

Review: Outstanding, a must read - An outstanding book, lucidand learned drawing from historical traditional and modern sources and fair to all, Yerushalmi is of course one of the masters of the field. All that and just a delightful, provocotive read.
Review: Great Book! - During this COVID quarantine social distancing, I have found a number of new resources. One is the Sabbath teachings from the synagogue in our neighborhood. I heard a message from Deuteronomy the other day and the Rabbi mentioned this book. I'm reading it devotionally. What a blessing! The nature of memory and history. Jewish memory in its historic context. Wow!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding, a must read

An outstanding book, lucidand learned drawing from historical traditional and modern sources and fair to all, Yerushalmi is of course one of the masters of the field. All that and just a delightful, provocotive read.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Book!
*by J***E on August 25, 2020*

During this COVID quarantine social distancing, I have found a number of new resources. One is the Sabbath teachings from the synagogue in our neighborhood. I heard a message from Deuteronomy the other day and the Rabbi mentioned this book. I'm reading it devotionally. What a blessing! The nature of memory and history. Jewish memory in its historic context. Wow!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tough Read But Well Worth The Effort
*by F***D on March 20, 2017*

This book is not easy reading to be sure. However, it was worth slugging away at it all the way to its conclusion. It provides some explanations for why the Jewish People have until recently not really sensed a need for legimate historiography. The final section concerning "remembering vs. forgetting", has lessons for Humanity at large.
