The Golem and the Wondrous Deeds of the Maharal of Prague

by Yudl Rosenberg · Curt Leviant (trans.)

An English translation of Rosenberg's Hebrew book of 1909, which created the classic story of Rabbi Judah Loew's protective golem. Leviant's introduction explains how Rosenberg presented his own invention as an old manuscript and set it against the blood libels of his day.
