About This Book

Friends, Colleagues, and Neighbors is a tribute to American Jewish contributions in the history of the United States as well as a reflection of the author's personal journey along the path of knowledge and understanding.

While neither attempting to glorify American Jews nor to have them appear smarter than other peoples, Rausch as a Gentile Christian takes a professional historical look at the significant contributions that the Jewish people have made that are integral to everyday life but have largely gone unnoticed in an age when peoplehoods are acknowledged and thanked.

In a timely and thorough analysis, Friends, Colleagues, and Neighbors examines the history of famous men and women many Americans may not realize are from Jewish backgrounds. In addition, the book presents American Jews who are making an impact on the nation while remaining virtually unknown to the general public.

Covering contributions of national import and civic responsibility, military service and philanthropy, scientific impact and medical breakthroughs, entertainment and commerce, Friends, Colleagues, and Neighbors is full of surprises and interesting details. Provocative and enlightening, the book underscores a diverse and dynamic peoplehood that has enhanced the culture, life, and livelihood of the United States.
