American Reform Judaism's major institutions' Hebrew Union College, the Central Conference of American Rabbis, and the Reform prayer-book Minhag America' were all due to the singular efforts of Isaac Mayer Wise (1819–1900). Professor Temkin's biography captures the vigour of Wise's personality and the politics and concerns of Jewish life and leadership in America at that time. It is a lively portrait of a rabbi who was a pivotal figure in the naturalization of Jews and Judaism in the New World.
