  • - The Horenstein Brothers and Their Fortune
    av Melvyn R Werbach
    575,-

    In late 19th century Russia, two brothers, both Hasidic Jews, laid the groundwork for an immense fortune in just a few years. Jews in the Ukraine and beyond celebrated these Horenstein brothers through numerous folk tales, yet the fascinating story of their remarkable success was lost to history until now. SONS OF THE LION'S CUB brings the brothers and their world alive again by reviewing their unique story from multiple perspectives and presenting a new theory of the origin of their sudden fortune. The latter part of the book examines their distinguished European Jewish ancestry, setting it against the backdrop of historical events. "Whoever may come to write the history of Jewish Ukraine ... will have to concern themselves with the ... Horenstein family." [Nakhman Mayzel (1887-1966), Yiddish scholar and literary critic (Morgn Frayhayt, 1943)]
