Author(s) Albert Isaacs AbstractBook Review: The book under review, Jews of the Outback, was issued in 2010 as part of centenary commemorations. However, it must be pointed out that this was not the centenary of the first Jewish settlement in Broken Hill (in 1881 there were already 41 Jews in the town;); nor was it a celebration of the 100th anniversary of the founding of the congregation; it was the centenary of the dedication of the 1910 synagogue that, as the book points out, served a Jewish community that had been regularly conducting services for ten years, and that had appointed its first rabbi some five years earlier
