In the 1860s Jews began to settle in Tianjin, a port city south of Peking, and in the late 19th and early 20th century and during World War II still more Jews migrated to the city. In Tianjin they had their own community in which to preserve the economic, religious, educational and cultural aspects of Jewish life. World War II did not prevent the Jewish community in Tianjin from maintaining its original lifestyle, nor from becoming a refuge for those that escaped Nazi genocide. The album records this period with detailed historical data and numerous photographs.
