Yiddish Tales

As explained in the Preface, the purpose of this book is "to introduce the non-Yiddish reading public to some of the many other Yiddish writers active in Russian Jewry, and--to leave it with a more cheerful impression of Yiddish literature than it receives from Perez alone. Yes, and we have collected, largely from magazines and papers and unbound booklets, forty-eight tales by twenty different authors. "
