Book Reviews of Memories of Eden: A Journey Through Jewish Baghdad
Book Review: Jewish Book Council Award FINALIST
Summary: 5 Stars
Memories of Eden has been selected FINALIST in the 2008 National Jewish Book Awards organized by the Jewish Book Council (USA). The work was chosen after careful analysis by a panel of three judges who are all authorities in their field. The judges encountered a great deal of difficulty in making their decisions this year. Several categories offered many viable candidates, which made the selection even harder. It is gratifying to know there is a wide range of Jewish content books available.
MEMORIES OF EDEN now joins the ranks of the hundreds of well-respected, classic Jewish books that have been National Jewish Book Award finalists. The National Jewish Book Awards, now in its 58th year, is the longest-running program of its kind in North America. The awards will be presented in New York City on Thursday, March 5, 2009, at The Center for Jewish History, 15, W.16th St, at 7:30pm
