The Not-so-common Tenenbaums: A Compendium of Family Stories (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781482351293)

GENEALOGY; FAMILY HISTORY; TRUE ANECTODOTAL STORIES; POLISH/JEWISH HISTORY; TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH FROM YIDDISH * My mother's family knew him as Uncle Sid. I never knew of my great uncle, Shea Tenenbaum, until the winter of 2007 when I was helping my mother with her genealogy searches. I discovered that we had a prolific Yiddish writer in the family. Aside from translating a language I did not know, these stories not only resurrect a family of people who would have been long forgotten, but are a testament to overcoming the worst adversity. Each person that survived made something of themselves out of less than nothing, with the exception of one woman, yet her descendants became very successful in their chosen vocations. Presented here is a journey through time to a country called Poland and a typical but eccentric Jewish family. I present this as a tribute to their very existence.
