Beschreibung:
By Ruth A. Frager
'Vigorously written, masterfully researched... a story at once full of hope and despair, a courage of cowardice and ultimately a triumph.' Irving Abella 'Frager's book benefits from a careful mining of Yiddish-language sources, particularly Yiddish newspapers, which provide unparalleled glimpses into the inner-life of the immigrant Jewish community.' American Jewish History 'This book provides a thoroughly documented and fascinating analysis of a pivotal period in the history of Canada's labour movement and of Canadian jewry. It should be of interest to a wide audience of readers.' -- Evelyn Kallen Studies in Religion 'A fascinating account of Jewish working-class activism and the relations between Jews across gender and class lines in the Toronto garment industry.' -- Sonya O.
