A Field Guide to Visiting a Jewish Cemetery

A Field Guide to Visiting a Jewish Cemetery by Joshua L. Segal. Paperback edition. ISBN: 9780976405719.

Jewish cemeteries are one of the most overlooked Jewish resources that provide history about the community and the practices of that community. By providing the tools to understand Jewish cemeteries, this book takes any Jewish cemetery and its artifacts and transforms them into a Jewish museum. The material presented is simple enough that it can be understood by those with the most minimal exposure to Hebrew, but it is comprehensive enough to be a valuable resource to the most sophisticated Jewish readers.
