Summary "The New York Jewish mystique has always been tied to the fabric and fortunes of the city, as have the community's social values, political inclinations, and its very idea of "Jewishness." In New York Jews and the Decline of Urban Ethnicity, Eli Lederhendler looks at the cause and effect of New York City politics and culture in the 1950s and 1960s and the inner life of one of the city's largest ethnic and religious groups."--Jacket.
