This is a  story about the rites of passage of a young boy growing up in the Catskill Mountains before it became the “Borscht Belt.” The author shares his lusts and loves, his young hopes and dreams, his fears and feats of bravery. He writes of a time when there were no fancy hotels  with elaborate meals and famous entertainers. It was a time of small entrepreneurs opening boarding houses to accommodate city folk who could not afford to vacation in hotels. It is also the story of a family’s struggle to overcome poverty and to cope with neighbors who were sometimes hostile because of religious differences, and sometimes gracious despite religious differences.The author looks back nostalgically at the interdependence of siblings despite their rivalries, and the unquestioning love and cooperation within a family struggling to succeed through emergencies, catastrophes, and aggravations.  It is a well-rounded history of love, hope and aspirations, and the down-to-earth experiences of dealing with life in the not so long ago past.Throughout our lifetime together, my husband shared many of these experiences with me. He is now sharing them with you. I am grateful to have been invited into his past. I hope you will be too.Mildred Bluming, BA, MASchool Psychologist,Los Angeles Unified School District

Jew Boy in Goy TownA Catskill Mountain Odyssey eBook H Charles Bluming Reviews

I read it 3 times. I thought it so beautifully written. He captured not only the atmosphere of early 20th century farm life in up state New York but also the thoughts and dreams of a sensitive wise young man. He was a remarkable man. He was my father.
from the 1st paragraph till the end, this book kept me wanting to read more with every word ... learned so much about the Catskills pre-Borscht Belt!
Many of your experiences were like mine even though I'm younger -- one-room school and all. You can leave the neighborhood, but it never leaves you. We also had chickens and summer boarders.
