Little Jerusalem : Burlington's Jewish Community / Vermont Public Television.

Publication | Library Call Number: DVD-1046

"In the late 19th century, faced with growing repression, many Eastern European Jews sought freedom in North America. During that exodus, a core of immigrants from neighboring rural villages, or shtetls, in Lithuania made their way to Burlington, Vt., a bustling lumber port surrounded by a countryside that reminded them of home. 'Little Jerusalem' became a thriving, traditional Jewish community in Burlington's Old North End from the late 1800s until World War II, and vestiges of its heritage still remain today."--DVD container.
