In A Field Guide to the Jewish People, three award-winning and bestselling writers offer a hilarious guide to everything you need to know about Jewish history, holidays, and traditions. They unravel a long and complicated history, and tackle the tough questions that have plagued Jews and non-Jews alike for centuries.

Join comedic legends Dave Barry, Adam Mansbach, and Alan Zweibel, as they combine the sweetness of an apricot rugelach with the wisdom of a matzoh ball, to provide all of the information on Judaism that you will ever need. Gather up your chosen ones, open a bottle of Manischewitz, and get ready to laugh as you finally begin to understand the inner-workings of Judaism.

Sarcasm, self-deprecation, paranoia, wisdom, and culture have never clashed so delectably.

Dave Barry is a humor columnist whose work has appeared in more than 500 newspapers in the United States and abroad. He is also the author of 30 novels, two of which were the basis for the sitcom Dave’s World.

Adam Mansbach is a novelist, screenwriter, cultural critic, and humorist. He is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Go the F**k to Sleep, which has been translated into 40 languages and sold over 2 million copies worldwide.

Alan Zweibel is an original Saturday Night Live writer who has won five Emmy awards for his work on The Late Show With David Letterman and Curb Your Enthusiasm.

Presented by the Milton “Mickey” Kramer Scholar-in-Residence Fund’s Tidewater Together series in partnership with the United Jewish Federation of Tidewater's & the Simon Family JCC’s Lee and Bernard Jaffe Family Jewish Book Festival.
