MOST RECENT TITLES JPS Guide to American Jewish History (Jewish Publication Society, 2007, $18.00, paper) This accessible, engaging guide to the history of the Jewish people in the United States tells the dramatic 350-year story of the Jewish American experience. It is illustrated with over 70 photographs, maps and charts, and more than 120 feature boxes and biographies. Plastics (Benchmark Books, Marshall Cavendish, 2007, $39.00) A social and cultural history of plastics. Three Across: The Great Transatlantic Air Race of 1927 (Calkins Creek/ Boyds Mills Press, 2008) In 1927, three airplanes were on the ground at Roosevelt Field in Long Island vying to be the first to cross the Atlantic. Their pilots were Charles A. Lindbergh, Commander Richard Byrd and Charles A. Levine. We know who was first. This is the improbable story of all three aviators whose flights captivated the world. Jewish Comedy Stars: Classic to Cutting Edge (KarBen /Lerner, 2010) Just what is Jewish humor? Could it be the nice but clueless humor of Woody Allen or Jerry Seinfeld? The charming boyish humor of Adam Sandler? Or the extreme portrayals concocted by Sacha Baron Cohen? Laugh with Norman H. Finkelstein as he looks at the impact of Jewish comedians on the American comedy scene.

Mention 1492 and most people conjure up images of three stout ships making their way west. But 1492 was the year in which the vibrant Jewish community of Spain came to an abrupt end. THE OTHER 1492 details the expulsion of the Jews from Spain and Portugal and their early immigration to the New World. The book received a starred review and editor's choice designation from Booklist and was an American Bookseller Pick of the Lists.
