Volume two of this epic incorporates the stories of many who seldom figure in Jewish histories: not just the rabbis and the philosophers but a poetess in the ghetto of Venice; a boxer in Georgian England; a Bible showman in Amsterdam; a teacher of the deaf in eighteenth-century Germany.  The story unfolds in Kerala and Mantua  the starlit hills of Galilee  the rivers of Colombia  the kitchens of Istanbul  the taverns of Ukraine and the mining camps of California. It sails in caravels  rides the stagecoaches and the railways; trudges the dawn streets of London  hobbles along with the remnant of Napoleons ruined army.  Through Schamas passionate and intelligent telling  a story emerges of the Jewish people that feels as if it is the story of everyone  of humanity packed with detail.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44983695114293,"sku":"ByrdShop_0062339575","price":26.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780062339577.jpg?v=1770806453","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/the-story-of-the-jews-volume-two-belonging-14921900","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
