A study that feels like a dispatch from the edges of history—White traces the Kaifeng Jewish community, a people folded into China’s dynasties yet still marked by ancient covenant. It’s ethnography, theology, and travelogue tangled together: liturgy in Hebrew, customs bent by Confucian soil, a synagogue that crumbled while memory lingered. The book carries the weight of a fading echo, documenting a lineage both hidden and resilient. Reading it is like walking into a ruin where the stones still whisper two languages at once

-Good - Book is well kept but may have some  noticeable signs of age or wear.
