Not ImpressedBy CustomerId hoped for something that would add depth to my understanding of the world of the late 19th century; when my owngrandmother and her sister went to live in the Jewish Foster Home. Or at least some concrete details about the daily life ofthe inmates.Instead; I found that Id purchased a slim little volume with the approximate content level and production values of a highschool year book. Twenty pages (of 120) to show the fundraisers from the 1960s and 70s!Feh.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Memories for my fatherBy Mary ForrestMy father and his brother lived in the foster home for Jewish orphans many years ago; and my father tells me stories about it all the time. I did some research and found this book; and my father spent hours poring over the photographs and telling me what he remembered about the images he saw. I know its very precious to him. I only wish there were even more photographs! Its such a shame that the building is now gone. But this helps preserve a piece of history that was very important; especially to my family.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. What MemoriesBy GeezerI was one of "THE KIDS" in this Home in the 1930s. I lost my father in 1932 in the midst of the greatdepression and this became home to about 220 of us at any one time.This was not a warehouseorphanage; this was truely as close to a home as they could make it. No walls; no fences; no gates;just as much freedom and understanding and consideration as is possible under the circumstances.
