Abstract:
"Edited by Pierre Anctil and Richard Menkis, the Champlain Society 2023 volume offers an overview of Canadian Jewish history up to 1923. This collection includes documentation from diverse archives in many languages, which account for the evolution of Canadian Jewry over three centuries and through a wide array of contexts and circumstances. This volume, the first of two on this subject, includes sources that have never been published before and highlights the activities, concerns and experiences of individuals that have not been heard until now."-- Provided by publisher.
