Fragile Branches: Travels through the Jewish Diaspora by James R. Ross is a thought-provoking and deeply personal exploration of Jewish identity, history, and the global Jewish diaspora. Through a series of travel essays, Ross takes the reader on a journey to various communities and locations around the world, shedding light on the diverse experiences of Jewish people and how their culture, religion, and history have adapted and persisted in different parts of the world.
Ross travels to a range of countries and cities, including those with long-standing Jewish populations, such as Israel, Europe, and the Americas, as well as places where Jewish communities are small or lesser known, like in India, South America, and Africa. Each chapter focuses on a particular Jewish community, offering insights into their unique histories, traditions, and challenges. Ross’s journey is as much about the places he visits as it is about the people he meets along the way.
