Margoshes gives the reader important insights into the many-faceted Jewish life of Austro-Hungarian Galicia. We read of the Orthodox and the Enlightened, urban and rural life, Jews and their gentile neighbors, and much more. This book is an important evocation of an entire Jewish society and civilization, and bears comparison with Yehiel Yeshaia Trunk’s masterful evocation of Jewish life in Poland, Poyln.
