The Book of Jasher: Faithfully Translated from the Original Hebrew into English
This is the first rabbinical work in English translation published in North America. Published in New York in 1840 by M.M. Noah & A.S. Gould, this book is a translation of the medieval Hebrew text, *The Book of Jasher*, compiled from the Babylonian Talmud and other Jewish sources, and intermixed with Arabic legends and passages from the Bible. The book's content is divided into sections covering the pre-Mosaic period, the Mosaic period, and a smaller section on later history. The preface is by M.M. Noah. This copy is considered to be the first U.S. edition of this translation.
