His family endured bitter poverty and forced and loveless marriages; his father was often absent.In this memoir of his childhood, Yosl describes everyday life in the shtetl, its inhabitants and their idiosyncrasies. Young, impressionable and headstrong, Yosl witnessed pivotal events within Judaism and the Russian Empire at the end of the 19th century. His first-hand accounts of the rise of the anti-tsarist and labor movements, and the often-harsh conflicts between different Jewish belief systems, are detailed and riveting. Set within his own family, Yosl's narrative describes their unique and sometimes conflicting personalities, their struggles, and their whole-hearted and life-threatening participation in the anti-tsarist and Jewish labor movements. This remarkable book is now available in English translation by Beate Sch?zmann-Krebs.\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Yosl Cohen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1954176732\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781954176737\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jewishgen.Inc\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/20\/2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 334\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.35lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.75d","brand":"Yosl Cohen","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44128660848895,"sku":"9781954176737","price":47.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_11a2fcac-4b9f-42f4-979a-2a92721ed448.jpg?v=1687459837","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/as-it-happened-yesterday-yosl-cohen-9781954176737","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
