Chodesh tov! Looking forward to the extra light that this month brings into the world.

For history buffs, I have an article in the latest issue of Kankan Journal – Did Jews Really “Control the Economy”? A Look at Jewish Merchants in the Early Middle Ages.

And for everyone – there are never too many Chanuka books! Here are some Chanuka books you and your family can enjoy this year (including mine), which I posted at Torah through Literature.

And if you’d like to do me a huge favor and share this post with family, friends, and on social media, I’d really appreciate it. Better yet, tell everyone to buy my books :).
