&ldquo;An excellent study [from the] gifted and resourceful historian Jonathan D. Sarna . . . His account shines brightest around the edges of the story, offering valuable new insights into ethnic politics, press power, and the onetime ability of leaders to flip-flop with grace . . . A compelling page-turner.&rdquo;&mdash;Harold Holzer,&#160;The Washington Post&ldquo;This provocative new book is exactly what it sounds like:&#160; an account of how Gen. Ulysses S. Grant issued an order to expel Jews from their homes in the midst of the Civil War.&#160; Anyone seeking to rock the Passover Seder with political debate will find the perfect conversation piece in Sarna&rsquo;s account of this startling American story. . . .&#160; His book is part of the prestigious [Jewish Encounters] series, matching prominent Jewish writers with intriguingly fine-tuned topics.&rdquo;&mdash;Janet Maslin,&#160;The New York Times&ldquo;Richly researched [and] filled with lively, little-known personalities . . . it also contains reams of juicy quotes and delicious bits of doggerel.&rdquo;&mdash;Jenna Weissman Joselit,&#160;The New Republic&ldquo;Engaging and splendidly researched . . . A compelling, even inspiring tale of redemption. Sarna&rsquo;s fine work is a heartening reminder that even politicians are sometimes touched by the better angels of their nature, and it is a welcome revision to the 18th president&rsquo;s place in American and Jewish history.&rdquo;&mdash;Commentary&#160;&ldquo;A thorough and thoughtful analysis.&rdquo;&mdash;San Francisco Chronicle&#160;&ldquo;Sarna&rsquo;s remarkably illuminating little gem of a book also reminds us that being Jewish in America has always been a complex psychological negotiation. His new book examines this phenomenon while closely studying a little-known slice of early American Jewish history that will both amaze and distress readers.&rdquo;&mdash;Jerusalem Post Magazine&ldquo;Powerful . . . Sarna&rsquo;s brilliantly nuanced exploration of the worst official anti-Semitic incident in American history offers us a clear reminder in these ideologically fraught days of why keeping up a firm wall between church and state remains a core defense for all of our freedoms. This wide-ranging and judiciously balanced book is the latest entry in the luminous Schocken/Nextbook Jewish Encounters series of books [that] thoughtfully pair a great writer and an important facet of Jewish life.&rdquo;&mdash;Marc Wortman, The Daily Beast&#160;&#160;&ldquo;An interesting history about a little-discussed event during the Civil War.&rdquo;&mdash;St. Louis Post-Dispatch&#160;&ldquo;Sarna&rsquo;s book is going to make a significant splash amidst a wave of new books reevaluating the career of one of our most famous army general/presidents . . . Most compelling.&rdquo;&mdash;John Marszalek, Moment magazine&ldquo;Ulysses S. Grant&rsquo;s order expelling Jews from his war zone has long helped insure his eternal disgrace.&#160; Supposedly, the drunken, bloodthirsty crook was also an anti-Semite! Jonathan Sarna&rsquo;s excellent, painstaking reevaluation of what really happened helps rescue Grant&rsquo;s reputation; it is long overdue. It also affirms Sarna&rsquo;s unsurpassed standing as a historian of American Jewry.&rdquo;&mdash;Sean Wilentz, author of The Rise of American Democracy: Jefferson to Lincoln&ldquo;Thoroughly researched and crisply written, this is a very fine work that will interest students of both American and modern Jewish history.&rdquo;&mdash;Publishers Weekly&#160;&ldquo;Sarna expertly navigates the repercussions of Grant&rsquo;s shocking order, which galvanized the American Jewish community into action, reminding many who were refugees from European expulsions how insecure they were even in America. . . . Sarna weighs the short-lived order against important Jewish appointments in Grant&rsquo;s administration, his humanitarian support for oppressed Jews around the world, and lasting friendships with&#160; Jews.&#160; A well-argued exoneration of a president and a sturdy scholarly study.&rdquo;&mdash;Kirkus Reviews&#160;&#160;&ldquo;In this compelling and focused study, Jonathan D. Sarna explores the causes&mdash;and assesses the little-known impact&mdash;of one of the most troubling incidents in the life of the Union's greatest commander.&rdquo;&mdash;Geoffrey C. Ward, coauthor of The Civil War&#160;&ldquo;An absorbing account of a lamentable act by the North&rsquo;s greatest&#160; general, a dishonorable act committed by an honorable man. This fair and balanced treatment of the event places the commander and the Jews in the context of great conflict. Fortunately, redemption and rapprochement would follow.&rdquo;&mdash;Frank J. Williams, president, Ulysses S. Grant AssociationFrom the Hardcover edition.
