Description

The book tells of the history, life and times of the Jews in South Africa.It is the matching volume to OUR LITVAK INHERITANCE published in March 2016These two volumes tell of the history, life and times of South African Jews originating in Eastern EuropeLike most South African Jews, my ancestors emigrated from Lithuania to South Africa between 1880 and 1920. We were the lucky ones escaping the horrors of the Holocaust and most of us have relatives left behind in Lithuania who perished in the Holocaust.For about 100 years we generally prospered and multiplied in South Africa and then in the early 1970s, seeking more secure futures for our families, we commenced immigrating to Israel, the UK, the USA, Canada and Australia and by the year 2000 about 50,000 of the 120,000 South African Jews had emigrated. Like my other books this is a compilation and not a single narrative. It is a gathering of articles, stories and histories that tell us of life and history and Jewish life and history in South Africa from 1880 to 1990. As it is a gathering of articles, stories and histories in some cases we will have two or more different views of the same event. The purpose of this book is to tell the history of South Africa and our Jewish contribution, with its rich Litvak culture, and to share it with our children and grandchildren. Another purpose of the book is to raise funds for Arcadia and Oranjia, formerly the two Jewish Orphanages in South Africa which still exist, and also for the JDC. All the proceeds from the sale of this book/compilation and my previous compilations will be donated to these three institutions which take care of Jewish children in need. As at the end of July 2016 over R1,200,000 had been raised for Arcadia and R60,000 for Oranjia from book salesThis 511 paged soft covered book is made up of the following sections1 The early history of South Africa in the Western and Eastern Cape Province.2 Kimberley and the discovery of Diamonds (Northern Cape)3 The Establishment of Natal, The Orange Free State and The Transvaal Boer Republics4 The discovery of Gold in the Witwatersrand and the founding of Johannesburg5 The Anglo Boer War 1899-19026 Immigration, Yiddish, Zionism and Jewish Culture 7 World War One8 The Generosity of the S A Jewish Community9 Landsmanschaften Mutual Aid Societies10 World War Two11 Jewish Life in Country Communities (1947 & 1948)12 Jewish Communities and Personalities13 Support for Israel during the Israeli War of Independence (1948 & 1949)14 The Struggle from Apartheid to Multi-racial electionsBooks sourced include Birth of a Community by Chief Rabbi professor Israel Abrahams, South Africa’s 800 - The Story of South African Volunteers in Israel’s War of Birth by Henry Katzew, The Fordsburg-Mayfair Hebrew Congregation 1893-1964 by Bernard Sachs, The Jews in South Africa, Edited by Gustav Saron and Louis Hotz, The Nationwide Survey of the South African Jewish Community by Arthur Markowitz, The Pretoria Jewish Community up to 1930 by Mrs Myrtle Todes, Mr Selwyn Zwick, Mrs Naomi Nowosenetz, Dr Rayme Rabinowitz, Mrs Avril Cohen, Mrs Jill Katz (editor), Mrs Mary Kropman and and Mr Ralph Lanesman, The Vision Amazing by Marcia Gitlin, The War Report by J E H Groble and Worlds Apart by Colin Tatz, Peter Arnold and Gillian Heller.
