Friedman renovated his flat in a grand townhouse in his hometown of Savannah, Georgia, he discovered a portal to the past. The Cohens, part of a Sephardic community in London, arrived in South Carolina in the mid-1700s; became founding members of Charleston's Jewish congregation; and went on to build home, community, and success in Savannah.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e In \u003ci\u003eLiberty Street: A Savannah Family, Its Golden Boy, and the Civil War\u003c\/i\u003e Friedman takes the listener on a personal journey to understand the history of the Cohens. At the center of the story is a sensitive young man pulled between love and duty, a close-knit family straining under moral and political conflicts, and a city coming into its own. Friedman draws on letters, diaries, and his experiences traveling from Georgia to Virginia, uncovering hidden histories and exploring the ways place and collective memory haunt the present. At a moment when the hard light of truth shines on gauzy Lost-Cause myths, \u003ci\u003eLiberty Street\u003c\/i\u003e is a timely work of historical sleuthing.","brand":"Tantor","offers":[{"title":"Audiobook","offer_id":50024860156208,"sku":"BDocbn","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio CD","offer_id":50024860188976,"sku":"ZEocbn","price":49.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Audio MP3-CD","offer_id":50024860221744,"sku":"ZMocbn","price":45.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/2784\/9264\/files\/ocbn-cover.jpg?v=1758863072","url":"https:\/\/downpour.com\/products\/book-ocbn","provider":"Downpour","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
