Too few historical novels are being published these days, particularly novels set before the twentieth century. So I feel very fortunate to have this beautifully written tale, set in the turbulent days of Napoleon Bonaparte’s Italian campaign, to add to my library.

A captivating historical novel, both emotionally rich and exquisitely researched, Beyond the Ghetto Gates, by Michelle Cameron, explores the cultural underpinnings and the historical struggles of its Jewish characters.
