Trade Review
To Stand Aside or Stand Alone will provide the English-speaking world with a documentary treasure trove that is, to the best of my knowledge, sui generis."" - Gary Phillip Zola, author of Isaac Harby of Charleston, 1788–1828: Jewish Reformer and Intellectual and coeditor of A Place of Our Own: The Rise of Reform Jewish Camping

""In 1966, Rabbi Allen Krause conducted frank interviews with Southern rabbis concerning Jews and the American civil rights movement. Now, fifty years later, transcripts of these precious interviews have finally been unsealed. The results—some of them explosive, some disturbing, and all of them illuminating—form the core of this book. It makes a unique contribution."" - Jonathan D. Sarna, author of When General Grant Expelled the Jews and American Judaism: A History
