The work of this generation of titans still guides the current modes of American Jewish life. The last of these giants was the influential reformer Stephen S. Wise?a progenitor of American Zionism, creator of the American and World Jewish Congresses, and founder of the Jewish Institute of Religion. As rabbi of the Free Synagogue, Wise led the fight for a living Judaism responsive to social problems.This engrossing study is more than a chronicle of an ethnic community's adjustment to a host society. Thanks to Melvin Urofsky's painstaking research, it succeeds in revealing the true story behind a legendary and controversial figure in American Jewish history. 410 0$aSUNY series in modern Jewish history 606 $aRabbis$zUnited States$vBiography 606 $aZionists$zUnited States$vBiography 615 0$aRabbis 615 0$aZionists 676 $a296.8/341/092 700 $aUrofsky$b Melvin I$0539835 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910958151003321 996 $aA voice that spoke for justice$94347680 997 $aUNINA
