Publisher's Summary:
Recipient of the MacArthur genius fellowship and founder of the National Yiddish Book Center, Lansky recounts his efforts to rescue the worlds abandoned Yiddish-language books before they pass out of existence.

Lanskys account of salvaging books is both hilarious and moving, filled with Jewish humor... and touching accounts of what were once thriving Jewish communities in Europe. (Publishers Weekly, starred review)
