Book Description
"Becoming American, Remaining Jewish traces the development of Wilmington, Delaware's first Jewish community in order to understand what the Jews created and why, what values were reflected in the institutions they established and the causes they advocated, and what changed over the years. Readers concerned about questions of identity and community today will find much stimulating material in this story." "The appendix, which contains the names of more than two thousand adult Jews lived in Wilmington between 1879 and 1920, is the most comprehensive list of early Jewish Wilmingtonians ever published. With its information on country of birth and first occupation, the list is a valuable resource for historians and genealogists."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Book Description
From its founding in 1901 through the second half of the 20th century, the Fort Worth section of the National Council of Jewish Women fostered the integration of its members into the social fabric of the community. This book reveals that the Fort Worth Council of Jewish Women was so successful that it prepared the way for its own obsolescence.
