A Field Guide to Visiting a Jewish Cemetery: A Spiritual Journey
to the Past, Present and Future
By Joshua L. Segal, Rabbi

This guide integrates the physical aspects of Jewish monuments with the spiritual and technical significance of tombstone inscriptions. The material presented is simple enough that it can be understood by those with the most minimal exposure to Hebrew, but it is comprehensive enough to be a valuable resource to the most sophisticated Jewish readers. It has a dictionary of Hebrew words found on tombstones and also includes common expressions that appear.


Softcover; 214 pages, Black and white photos, index.
