Voices of Savannah

The Savannah Jewish Archives (SJA), housed in the Georgia Historical Society and funded by the Savannah Jewish Federation, was established in 1994 to preserve and make available the history of the Jewish community of Savannah, Georgia. As part of an ongoing effort to make their holdings accessible to the public, the SJA, on its tenth anniversary, proudly presents Voices of Savannah: Selections from the Oral History Collection of the Savannah Jewish Archives. This new offering from the SJA is a supplement to The Jewish Community of Savannah (Arcadia Press, 2002), which utilized the Archives' extensive photograph collection to trace the history of Savannah's Jewish community. Voices of Savannah offers previously unseen photographs from the collections of the SJA while also drawing narrative text from more than one hundred oral history interviews collected from and by local Jewish residents, pulling together their own stories in their own words to create a unique picture of Savannah in days gone by. - Back cover.
