Her Works Praise Her:

A History of Jewish Women in America from Colonial Times to the Present

by Hasia R. Diner Benderly

Ever since Peter Stuyvesant in 1654 grudgingly admitted a band of twenty-three refugee Jews to colonial New Amsterdam, Jewish women have played a pivotal role in building the culture of the United States and in shaping the history of American Judaism. From salons in Federal Philadelphia to gold rush boarding houses, from frontier homesteads to Progressive-era settlement houses to 1970s protest marches, American Jewish women used their distinctive sense of self and community to fashion families, livelihoods and religious practices that fit both American opportunities and ancient Jewish values.
