More about the book

The book explores Jewish farming in New Jersey during the Great Migration (1881-1914), highlighting over 100 organized agricultural experiments. It details how Russian Jews, supported by the Jewish Colonization Association, transitioned from urban life in Europe to farming in New Jersey's diverse landscapes. The narrative examines the rise of Jewish farmers in the poultry market and their eventual departure, using rare sources to illustrate their journey from inexperience to success in American agriculture. Arthur L. Finkle provides a comprehensive historical account of this transformation.
