---AUTOGRAPHED BOOK: Number Our Days--- (Signed by Barbara Myerhoff) $65 or best reasonable offer When noted anthropologist Barbara Myerhoff received a grant to explore the process of aging, she decided to study elderly Jews from Venice, California. The story of the rituals & lives of these remarkable people is, as Bel Kaufman said, "one of those rare books that leave the reader somehow changed." Dr. Myerhoff records the stories of a culture that gives people the strength to face enormous daily problems. The tale is a poignant one, funny & wise, with implications for all of us about the importance of ritual, the agonies of aging, & the indomitable human spirit. The hardcover has minor blemishes as shown in the images. This is signed by author, Barbara Myerhoff, and is an absolutely amazing & rare find for any historical collector! Don't miss your chance to own a part of anthropological history and even graced by the signature of the writer! Dedication to Carol from the author!
