We are glad to offer the complete four volume set of Jacob Rader Marcus' last encyclopedic treatment of American Jewish History. It was published by Wayne State University Press rather than The Jewish Publication Society as one might have expected. That combined with a rather high price ($230.00) may have kept your library from acquiring it. I am glad to be able to offer complete sets for $60.00 postpaid within the US. $80.00 postpaid to Canada, or $97.00 postpaid elsewhere around the globe. Included with this set at no additional cost will be a copy of a posthumously published collection of Marcus' essays, "The Dynamics of American Jewish History: Jacob Rader Marcus's Essays on American Jewry," a Brandeis U. Press. Publication. Bibliographic details are below. Call 415-831-3228 or email to reserve a set. We ship and bill to libraries. Individuals should prepay.
