Daughters of Shem and Other Stories is a collection of short stories written by Samuel Gordon and first published in 1898. The book includes six stories that explore the lives of Jewish immigrants in New York City during the late 19th century. The title story, Daughters of Shem, follows the lives of two sisters who must navigate the challenges of assimilation and tradition in their new home. Other stories in the collection include The Rabbi's Christmas, which tells the tale of a rabbi who helps a poor family during the holiday season, and The Burden of Isaac, which explores the relationship between a father and son. Throughout the book, Gordon explores themes of identity, family, and tradition, offering a glimpse into the lives of Jewish immigrants during a time of great change in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
