West to Eden

Emma Coen Lewin is the magnetic heroine of this absorbing family saga, a brave young woman who flees Amsterdam at the turn of the century for a new life in an American desert town called Phoenix. With her brothers and her husband Isaac, who has fled Russian pogroms, Emma is instrumental in achieving Arizona's statehood, in building a highly successful chain of emporiums and in nurturing the remarkable Jewish community that flourishes in the pioneer West.
