Judah Passow, photographer of No Place Like Home (Bloomsbury), has created an equally brilliant portrait of Jewish people who live north of England s border. In exploring the place of the Jewish community in contemporary Scottish society, Passow s journey has much emphasis, naturally, on Glasgow and Edinburgh but also takes us to surprising places like the Shetland Islands and Skye. This fascinating photographic essay shows Scotland s Jews firmly rooted in their Jewish identity, but fervently patriotic Scots as well.
The photographs are introduced by Michael Mail, an award-winning author, who conceived the project to document Scottish Jewish life.
