How Jewish Communities Defended Orthodoxy 1820-1940 "Without knowing the past, we are woefully ignorantabout the present, and certainly have no clue as towhat the future will be."From Rabbi Berel Wein’s Introduction to Struggle, Challenges and Tradition What Happened?In a little over a century, masses of Jews throughout the world discarded the beliefs they had cherished for millennia. Orthodoxy - the name bestowed on the minority who held firmly to Torah life - seemed doomed to extinction. And then... What Happened?After a century of losing battles with the forces of assimilation, as well as the horrors of the Holocaust, Torah Judaism underwent an almost-miraculous resurgence, prospering in a way that no one could ever have imagined.In Struggle, Challenges and Tradition famed historian Rabbi Berel Wein takes us on a grand tour of world Jewry from the years 1820 - 1940. He explores the remorseless battles and the forces ranged for and against Torah observance. He discovers which strategies helped defend and rebuild Torah life - and which failed. Struggle, Challenges and Tradition is a fascinating work of history - and a vital book for anyone who cares about Torah Jewry’s future.
