A Field Guide to the Jewish People, with Dave Barry, Pulitzer Prize Winning Humorist and Adam Mansbach, New York Times Bestselling Author

This self-proclaimed “last book on Judaism you will ever have to buy,” contains the sweetness of an apricot rugelach and the wisdom of a matzah ball.

Why do random Jewish holidays keep springing up unexpectedly? Why are yarmulkes round? Who was the first Jewish comedian? These comedy legends answer these baffling questions and many more. They dissect every holiday, rite of passage, and tradition, unravel a long and complicated history, and tackle the tough questions that have plagued the long-suffering Jewish people everywhere for centuries.

Dave Barry is a Pulitzer Prize-winning humor writer and bestselling author of Best. State. Ever. whose work has appeared in hundreds of newspapers.

Adam Mansbach is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Go the F**k to Sleep and You Have to F*****g Eat, as well as the California Book Award-winning novel The End of Jews. Meet the authors at the book sale and signing to follow.
