Urban Exodus: Why the Jews Left Boston and the Catholics Stayed
Gerald Gamm
Gamm places neighborhood institutions at the center his investigation. He challenges the long-held assumption that bankers and real estate agents were responsible for the rapid Jewish exodus. Rather, according to Gamm, basic institutional rules explain the strength of Catholic attachments to neighborhood and the weakness of Jewish attachments.
