Mr. Benoni's charge about the quality of my research is really perplexing. So I invite him to demonstrate what has been left out and show me where on the internet he has found all the interesting stuff he claims I left out that would have been available five years ago when the book was being researched. He can e-mail me directly.
I sincerely doubt how honest some of the reviews of this book here are! It's simply not a good guide. Not that the author can't write, but the content is very poor. A search on the internet will reveal more information on the places you want to visit than you can find in this book. There are so many terrific places which aren't mentioned: in fact some of the most interesting synagogues France has to offer aren't included. Probably the author doesn't know them, which says a lot about the research she has done. A great subject to write a book about but unfortunately a missed opportunity!
I agree with the reviewers who gave this book poor reviews. There are far better sources of this material than this poorly written book. It is not worth the money and I wouldn't bother to get it out of the library either.
Also, who reviews her own book but just uses the space to devalue another reviewer's honest opinion and then gives herself five stars? Weak ego!
