Washington, D. C.: Smithsonian Institution. Very Good. 1908. Softcover. An article removed from a larger bound volume. There is some wear/remnants to the spine. The text-block is solid, except for the first page/title-page that is loose, but present. The contents are bright, clean and complete with some illustrated plates. ., Smithsonian Institution, 1908, Addison-Wesley, 1996. First Printing, Ex-Library. Hardcover. Very good. Great book! First Printing, Ex-Library book with glossy dustjacket, library stamp on edge & endpage. Amazon: When the United States South went into an uproar over the 1954 Supreme Court decision in favor of integration, Jacob Rothschild--rabbi of the Temple, Atlanta's oldest and richest synagogue--responded with an outspoken defense of civil rights. "He was aware that he lived in strange times, when the pronouncement of elemental moral observations stirred political havoc." The bombing of the Temple by neo-Nazi extremists in 1958 was but one climactic moment in a progression of conflicting messages and class struggles experienced by Jews in the post-war South. Melissa Fay Greene is a fine storyteller with a rich, literary style: she portrays the social setting, as well as the crime itself and its aftermath, with a plethora of compelling details. By the end of the book, when Rabbi Rothschild is hosting a dinner for Martin Luther King in honor of his Nobel Peace Prize, the reader has gained a solid sense of a pivotal time and place in Southern history." "From Publishers Weekly: In 1958, anti-Semitic white supremacists dynamited Atlanta's oldest Jewish synagogue, whose rabbi, Pittsburgh-born Jacob Rothschild, was an outspoken advocate of integration. A trial of the accused terrorists ended in a hung jury, and a second trial in acquittal. The Reform Jewish Temple became a rallying point uniting blacks and Jews in efforts for racial justice, and Rabbi Rothschild (who died in 1974 at the age of 62) befriended Martin Luther King Jr., who in 1960 moved home to Atlanta, the scene of many critical confrontations in the early civil rights movement. Greene recreates these events in a spellbinding narrative written with fierce moral passion and a great sense of historic drama. By delving into the exclusionary policies and attitudes of Atlanta's white Protestant elite, tensions within the city's Jewish community, related terrorist incidents and links among right-wing extremist, racist and anti-Semitic organizations, she has reclaimed a forgotten chapter of the civil rights era.

Illustrated with photos and political cartoons ., Hatikva, 2002, On October 12, 1958, the Reform Jewish synagogue in Atlanta exploded when 50 sticks of dynamite detonated. A key moment in Civil Rights history, as telling in its way as Rosa Parks's refusal to change bus seats. This volume looks back on this pivotal event, creating a picture of a city, a region, and indeed a country on the cusp of monumental change. It was an era of almost totalitarian thought in the South. Dissent had been silenced by terror. The lunatic fringe was allowed to respond to Brown versus Board of Education, while the moderate majority was afraid to speak. Into the the breach stepped an unlikely hero, Jacob Rothschild, a young rabbi who had returned from World War II to lead the oldest and most prominent synagogue in Atlanta. Rothschild was one of a handful of whites of his generation with the courage to speak up for racial justice. This book weaves together the stories of white supremacists, the privileged white community, the black community, and the Jewish community., Perseus Books, 1996<
