I just loved every minute of this book. The book is written years ago. Even the new edition is old. But doesn't make the book less of a beautiful journey through the life a big Russian-Jewish family. Keep in mind that if you have a super busy life like me, try to be organized in reading it since you might forget the names and their associations with each other.
A Masterpiece!

This fantastic book weaves a story about Jewish life in Czarist Russia that is endearing...and unfortunately, gone forever. This effort succeeds on many levels..as a historical footprint, family biography, and wonderful personality sketches. Best of all, it chronicles the many sucesses, and many tragedies of the Bercinsky family. To any that are interested in Jewish family life in the Czarist "Pale of Settlement"...this is a must read!
