The Memoirs of Nahum N. Glatzer

The geographic, spiritual, and intellectual journeys of Nahum Glatzer (1903-1990)-prolific scholar, Brandeis University professor, and editor of the Schocken publishing house-reveal a rich cultural ambiance that no longer exists, as well as a breadth of perspective and learning that remains enviable in our time.
"This magnificent collection of memoirs by a great Jewish scholar is a gem. Read it and ask your friends to read it. They will be grateful for discovering the mind and the soul of a rare interpreter and commentator who has enriched many generations of students and teachers."
-Elie Wiesel
Edited and Presented by Michael Fishbane and Judith Glatzer Wechsler
