Reviews

A "Jewish Marshall Plan" is well written and researched, incorporating new historiographical frameworks and details that deepen the analysis first developed in the original [French] edition. The result is a painstaking examination of American Jewish efforts to influence the reconstruction of Jewish life in France after the Holocaust. Faure examines these processes, which she terms the "Jewish Marshall Plan," with a particular focus on the JDC. - Meredith Scott (H-Judaic)
