Afro-Jewish Encounters: From Timbuktu to the Indian Ocean and Beyond
William F. S. Miles
A Muslim curator and archivist who preserves in his native Timbuktu the memory of its rabbi. An evangelical Kenyan who is amazed to meet a living 'Israelite.' Indian Ocean islanders who maintain the Jewish cemetery of escapees from Nazi Germany. These are just a few of the encounters the author shares from his sojourns and fieldwork.
