Jewish addresses of Ukraine. Guidebook.

by Marharyta Yehorchenko, Iryna Berliand, Ihor Vynokurov (compilers)

Description

This guidebook leads you through the locations in cities and villages of Ukraine that are closely connected to the history and culture of Ukrainian Jewish Community. The book is based on the geographical principle, i.e. each chapter describes a particular region of Ukraine. The illustrative material allows us to see both cultural monuments that still exist as well as photos of the objects that have not survived. Special attention is paid to personalities, including Jewish writers, cultural activists, civil rights leaders, philanthropists, religious figures, and righteous men. The guidebook can be especially useful for tourists who are interested in the Jewish history of the country.
