street; Riv-Ellen Prell warns that historians who echo the tone and rhetoric of the original debates about postwar suburbanization risk overlooking evidence of dynamism and ferment in the decade following the end of World War II. In another section, contributors examine how public behavior and self-representations reflect the values and aspirations of subsections of the community. Beth Wenger, for example, argues that conspicuous displays of patriotism and valorization of war service have simultaneously acted as self-serving posturing and as a reflection of a genuine conviction that Jewish military service from the Revolution onward has made Jews part of the fabric of the nation. Marianne Sanua and Jeffrey Gurock interpret the shifting values of the Orthodox communities respectively through a close reading of a pastime for girls and sporting culture. Jeffrey Shandler contextualizes the emergence of virtual subcommunities in the Internet age within a lively discussion of Jewish adaptation and embrace of “new media” (radio, film, and video) as tools of community earlier in the twentieth century. Jenna Weissman Joselit offers a fascinating insider’s view of the role of museum exhibitions in cultivating community and collective memory. In all, this volume offers a challenging and often entertaining collection of contributions. Although together these essays do not comprise a systematic reexamination of Jewish communal life, like the American Jewish community itself, this collection’s strength is in its diversity and creativity. Adam Mendelsohn is assistant professor of Jewish studies at the College of Charleston and, in 2008–2009, a fellow at the Center for Advanced Judaic Studies at the University of Pennsylvania. 186 • American Jewish Archives Journal
