Beschreibung
"[...] Zajdband's study is well worth reading. We may hope that it will encourage more readers and researchers to engage with a German(-speaking)/British/Jewish history that can be described, in the best sense, as truly transnational."
Martina Niedhammer in: German Historical Institute London Bulletin XLI.1 (2019), 145-148
"Exhaustively researched, this detailed study is especially strong in exploring Germany's pre-Nazi Jewish landscape, the persecutions that arose after 1933, the difficulties in escaping and the moral dilemmas posed by fleeing and leaving congregations behind. [...] Overall, this is a welcome and valuable addition to the study of Jewish refugee sub-groups in 1930s Britain and it makes an important contribution to the historiography of migration, exile and refugee studies and the Second World War."
Jennifer Craig-Norton in: Judaica. Beiträge zum Verstehen des Judentums 73 (2017), 2-3, pp. 357-359
"[...] German Rabbis in British Exile is a great book in which its author Astrid Zajdband uncovers an almost unknown story and gives new insights into the history and broader implications of the German Jewish diaspora and its refugee rabbinate."
David Jünger in: German History, doi:10.1093/gerhis/ghx096, (05.01.2018)
"[...] gelungene, angenehm lesbare Studie."

"Astrid Zajdband's study presents new information on the interesting question of how German rabbis managed their lives and professions in the very different ambiance of Great Britain. Its use of quantitative approaches, in addition to more traditional ones, in order to define the subject more precisely is a welcome innovation."
Michael A. Meyer, Hebrew Union College - Jewish Institute of Religion
