Five chapters examine key themes in American Jewish history: movement, home life, community, prejudice, and culture. Each thematic chapter is followed by a series of case studies that describe and analyze a variety of projects by historical organizations to interpret American Jewish life and culture for general public audiences. The last two chapters of the book are a history of Jewish collections and Jewish museums in North America and a look at \"next practice,\" intended to promote continuous innovation, new thinking, and programming that is responsive to ever-changing circumstances.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46493698949271,"sku":"9781442264359","price":4989.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781442264359.webp?v=1769173441","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/interpreting-american-jewish-history-at-museums-and-historic-sites-9781442264359","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
