Book Description
Written with great satirical perception, the book relates the adventures of a proud, resourceful Sephardic schnorrer (or beggar) who lords it over his fellow mendicants in London in the late 1790s. A literary gem, the book pokes fun at the prejudices dividing London's Jewish community in the late 18th century.
