The Falashas, who are the most isolated and most ancient Jewish community extant, have preserved their own religious writings through the centuries. This book offers a cross section of their sacred literature, translated for the first time into English from Ethiopic sources. In addition, the translator provides a detailed description of the life and mores of the Falashas, based on his personal experience and observation during a prolonged stay in their community."An excellent, unique, and fascinating volume. an illuminating view of the range of Falasha sacred literature, all freshly rendered into forceful English, and of timeless interest."-Harry E. Wedeck, National Jewish Monthly"Gives to the English-reading public for the first time an extensive and intimate view of the life and literature of an extremely interesting branch of the Jewish religious community."-S. D. Goitein, Commentary"The translations in the anthology are notably well done.. For thus presenting in full the evidences of a most extraordinary modern ethnic discovery, Dr. Leslau merits the praise of both scholarly and general public."-Abraham Burstein, American Jewish Review"This fascinating volume [is] a valuable contribution." -Alexander Heidel, Near Eastern Studies | Falasha Anthology by Wolf Leslau, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
