The World That Was: Ashkenaz - The Legacy of German Jewry 843-1945
by Rabbi A. Leib Scheinbaum

Publisher: Shaar Press/Hebrew Academy of Cleveland, 2010



From its humble beginnings in Mainz, Rabbi Scheinbaum gives a panoramic and richly textured view of the world of Ashkenaz Jewry, in all its splendor and suffering.

Here are profiles of some of the greatest luminaries and leaders the Jewish world has known. The world that was Ashkenaz was a world of extremes: a world of great sages and false messiahs, murderous Crusaders and saintly Torah giants, men of the spirit and men of the sword. It is a world beautifully captured in this elegant and important new book. (568 Pages)
