Its a wonderful source in visualizing how the Brooklyn area looked. There are
3 maps and the chapters include familles and their homes.

* L'Shannah Tovah (li-SHAH-nuh TOH-vuh; li-shah-NAH toh-VAH)
Hebrew. Lit. for a good year. The common greeting during Rosh ha Shannah and
the Days of Awe. This is a shortening of "L'Shannah tovah tikatev v'taihatem"
(or, to women, "L'Shannah tovah tikatevi v'taihatemi"), which means, "May you
be inscribed and sealed for a good year." This year, Rosh ha Shannah begins
at sunset on Monday, October 3 on the civil calendar.
