I love Eyewitness Books. This one covers the history of Israel and Jews as well as customs and traditions, and the pictures help so much. I learned some fascinating tidbits. I had no idea that there were other times in history outside the Holocaust where Jews were compelled to wear certain items of clothing to identify them as such (in the Middle Ages, it was a pointed hat). Fascinating.
I'm continuing to iMic records today. In a little bit, if it stops raining, I should probably go to the library and take back some books. Then again, I might not.
