Meaning for the United States"

Title: "From

Author: Roy S. Neuberger
Publisher: Jonathan David Publishers, Inc., 68-22 Eliot Avenue, Middle
Village, NY 11370
Year of publication: 2000
Subject: Written with unbridled passion, uncommon humility, and disarming
candor, "From Central Park to Sinai" takes us on a tumultuous emotional
journey from an empty security life to a world of spiritual richness,
guided by the belief that there is a very real entity Who created the
world and whose rules we are obliged to follow. Roy Neuberger's remarkable
transformation from a Central Park rich kid to a deeply religious Jew
mesmerizes, fascinates, inspires, and ultimately comforts us with the
knowledge that if we dare to look within, we, too, can find the path to
Sinai.

Title: "Love
Affair With a City: The Story of Stanley M. Isaacs"
Author: Edith S. Isaacs
Publisher: Random House, New York
Year of publication: 1967
Subject (from dust jacket): Stanley M. Isaacs (1882-1962) was a Republican
by affiliation, a conservative by family tradition, and yet a political
liberal who fought hard for civil rights, decent housing and adequate
education for all New Yorkers. To friends and opposition alike he became
"Mr. New York." In this warm and charming memoir, Mrs. Isaacs writes with
grace and wit of her husband's public and private life, the Isaacs family,
and their somewhat irresponsible and irrepressible Japanese servant Joji,
who added his own brand of chaos to the Isaacs home. She also recounts
the many incidents of the Stanley Isaacs/Robert Moses feud, and tells
the facts of the famous "Gerson affair," which cost Isaacs a second term
as Borough President of Manhattan and destroyed the possibility of his
becoming Mayor.
Title: "The
Old Guard and Other Addresses"
Author: Myer S. Isaacs
Publisher: Privately printed: The Knickbocker Press, New York
Year of publication: 1906
Subject (From first chapter entitled "Biographical Memoir): The addresses
and essays which are included in the present volume, while they represent
only a small portion of his activity on the platform, are characteristic
of his matured opinions on subjects of vital interest to Judaism. In their
present form, it is hoped that they will be rescued from forgetfulness,
and be treasured as a precious memorial of a life dedicated to high aims,
fragrant with loving service, and crowned deservedly with God's blessing.
Title: "Salant,
CBS, and the Battle for the Soul of Broadcast Journalism: The Memoirs
of Richard S. Salant "
Author: Richard S. Salant, Susan Buzenberg (Editor)
Publisher: Westview Press
Year of publication: 1998, paperback in 1999
Subject (from Amazon.com web site): The only authorized, insider book
on the history of broadcasting, by Richard Salant, former head of CBS
News and the "patron saint" of broadcast journalism. Salant, CBS, and
the Battle for the Soul of Broadcast Journalism tells the story of CBS
News during its golden era. The late Richard S. Salant was president of
CBS News for sixteen years throughout the 1960s and 1970s. He became widely
recognized by journalists as the "patron saint of television news." During
his tenure, Salant confronted issues of enormous importance-Vietnam, the
civil rights movement, and Watergate-and launched the first thirty-minute
Evening News, CBS Morning News, and 60 Minutes. Along the way, he hired
Mike Wallace, Roger Mudd, Dan Rather, and Diane Sawyer.
Title: "Samuel
Myer Isaacs: A 19th Century Jewish Minister in New York City"
Author: E. Yechiel Simon
Publisher: Available from UMI Dissertation Services, 300 N. Zeeb Road,
Ann Arbor, MI 48105 1-800-521-0600, which labels itself the central source
for almost every doctoral dissertation accepted in North America since
1861.
Year of publication: September 1974 dissertation for Bernard Revel Graduate
School Yeshiva University, New York
Subject (in introduction): It is, therefore, quite surprising that Samuel
Myer Isaacs, hazan and preacher in New York City for thirty-nine years
(participant in the dedication ceremonies of over forty-seven synagogues
throughout the country by the year 1870, fully twelve years prior to his
death), could be almost ignored by many notable source books and practically
unknown by others. It is startling that a founder of Mt. Sinai Hospital,
an editor of a weekly newspaper from January 2, 1857, until his death
twenty-one years later, an organizer of the Jewish Board of Delegates,
a staunch advocate of orthodoxy and a spiritual leader of two prominent
congregations could have been almost overlooked by many American Jewish
biographers. The writing of this treatise has been motivated by a desire
to correct this oversight and to pay tribute to the memory of one of the
most outstanding American Jews of the nineteenth century.
