    “I have been singing your praise at every speaking and teaching engagement since I set sight on
    “THE” Book. It is a great piece of work and beautifully produced. ..... I don’t think anyone has
    written such a personal and witty family history in Australia. Of course, the early chapters are a
    delight but you tackled the latter generations with skill. You managed to do this by involving us in
    the “what happens next?”chapter after chapter. And the photographs are fascinating”.

    Rabbi Levi has written extensively on Australian Jewish history, published a number of books and
    is widely accepted as the foremost authority on the subject.

    “What a wonderful gift. I had received it Friday before Christmas and had devoured it by Boxing
    Day. Such a fabulous story and although I was aware of your family from the Cashmore connection
    and Port Albert, your intertwining of that family with the subsequent other branches of your
    antecedents kept me riveted!. So few people in Australia would have such a background and even
    fewer would have tracked it downed pieced it together’

    (Former owner Spencer Scott Sandilands, Commercial Gallery, Australian Prints and Maps,
    Melbourne)

    “....You have achieved a wonderful milestone in your life's journey. I NEVER read a book for
    relaxation unless I am cruising. I am NOT cruising now and I have finished the entire book in a very
    short time. I felt that I did not want to stop reading your words. Such excellent word pictures,
    wonderful photos, and brilliant reproductions are hallmarks of this book.....”

  • Melody Curtis

    “There were so many parts that I laughed out loud and so much I learnt of those who came before
    me......I have never realised what a significant part Judaism had played in the lives of our
    Australian ancestors.....it also gave a great sense of Australian history.....the book is a treasure and
    I can’t thank you enough for all the work you have put into it”.

  • E Segal
