Reviews

'A useful reference book that will support various academic subjects.' - Reference Reviews

'For sheer detail and breadth of scale they (maps) offer an essential reference for students [and] teachers.' - Fergus Collins, BBC History Magazine'It is attention to detail that sets this atlas aside from any competitors.' -- Reference Reviews'All libraries of any size, including collections serving the general public, should own a recent edition. Inch-for-inch of page, it is hard to conceive of any other work, textual of graphical, conveying so much information on Jewish history in as accessible and digestable form. Excellent value.' -- Reference Reviews
