For almost seventy years, the Jewish Book Council has been America’s #1 promoter of Jewish books. It invented Jewish Book Month, pioneered the National Jewish Book Awards, and nurtured generations of writers and readers. Many a book, including mine, have benefited from the council’s single-minded devotion to Jewish literature of every kind. If North American Jews are still the “people of the book,” it’s largely thanks to the Jewish Book Council."
