About this book

A revealing biography of Chief Rabbi Hertz, a towering figure in 20th-century British Jewish history.

Chief Rabbi Joseph Herman Hertz (1872-1946) navigated British Jewry through unprecedented challenges: two World Wars, the rise of Nazism, and internal divisions between traditionalists and modernizers. Derek Taylor's biography explores Hertz's unwavering commitment to Orthodox Judaism and his battles to maintain the Chief Rabbinate's authority.

Discover the complexities of Hertz's leadership as he grappled with Zionism, anti-Semitism, and the evolving Anglo-Jewish identity. This insightful account sheds light on Hertz's personal struggles, his relationships with influential figures like Winston Churchill and Lord Balfour, and his enduring legacy as a defender of faith and community. Perfect for readers interested in Jewish history, religious leadership, and the dynamics of tradition in a changing world.
