1 Potok, Chaim The Promise
Just as The Chosen summoned up the depths of the commitment that loving fathers make for their sons, Chaim Potok's new novel evokes the promise that the young make to themselves, to their own lives - the obstacles life automatically interposes, and the strength, the intelligence, the daring that must constantly be brought to bear if the promise is to be kept. The binding has one corner bent down; the jacket has small tears and a few chips at the top front and along the spine top. 359 pages, no marks or tears. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

2 Potok, Chaim Wanderings: Chaim Potok's History of the Jews
0394501101 / 9780394501109; In Chaim Potok's extraordinary narrative - large, panoramic, rich with brilliant and moving details - the 4,000-year history of the Jews unfolds, alive with the sweep and turbulence of the centuries. It carries us from the remote past to the 20th century, showing us the Jewish people within the succession of civilizations that both harbored and suppressed them - Mesopotamia and Egypt, Greece and Rome, Islam, medieval Christendom, and modern secular society. What gives Wanderings its unique resonance and depth is that Potok reveals the complexity and richness of this Jewish identity by divulging - in a triumph of historical synthesis - the essential nature of each great culture with which Jewish life and Jewish intellect have been intertwined. All is reflected in text and beautiful reproductions, scores in full color that illustrate most every page - wall paintings, golden objects, tombstone statuary, illustrated Bibles, amulets and so much more. The binding is ivory cloth, possibly buckram with the title blind stamped over and over on the cover. The bottom corners are bent in slightly. Has an extensive index. The jacket has very light wear at the corners and a 1/2" tear at the spine top.
