A History of Jewish Crafts and Guilds

By Mark Wischnitzer

A sociologist and historian reviews the story of Jewish artisanship from its beginnings, in biblical times, through the late eighteenth century. He details Jewish involvement in a variety of craft activities and demonstrates how Jewish guilds were used as political pawns by the rulers of the countries where the artisans lived.
