Hasidism

A New History

by David Biale, David Assaf, Benjamin Brown, Uriel Gellman, Samuel C. Heilman, Moshe Rosman, Gadi Sagiv and Marcin Wodziński

Written by an international team of historians, this Princeton volume is the most comprehensive history of Hasidism yet produced. It follows the movement from the Baal Shem Tov through its eighteenth-century spread, nineteenth-century courts, the Holocaust and its contemporary revival. Richly illustrated and authoritative, it is the standard reference for anyone studying the social and spiritual history of Hasidism.
