Greetings, I am trying to view the digitized book (in German) "Geschichte der Juden im ehemaligen Furstbistum Bamberg" by Adolf Eckstein (published Bamberg, Germany 1898), the call number is 943.3F2ea.

When I click on the digitized link, I get a book (also in German) from 1876 that is a list of students in Meissen from 1543-1875, published in 1876 "Konigliche Lanesschule zu Meissen 1543-1875" by M. August Hermann Kreysing.

Can the link be corrected to go to the resource about the history of Jews in Bamberg?

Thank you!

Ann Fourt

    Searching from the Books tab, I find this link for "Geschichte der Juden im ehemaligen Furstbistum Bamberg," which appears to be the correct book, based on the cover and title page.

    https://www.familysearch.org/library/books/records/item/159319-geschichte-der-juden-im-ehemaligen-furstbistum-bamberg-bearbeitet-auf-grund-von-archivalien-nebst-urkundlichen-beilagen?offset=1

    @ancestorsleuth , if you were previously trying to view the book as a digitised microfilm, the catalog entry https://www.familysearch.org/search/catalog/327294 shows that it is ITEM 3, on the digitised microfilms, so you needed to scroll, via the thumbnails to Item 3, which is image 489, and you will find the text.

    The link provided by Áine Ni Donnghaile  indicates that the book was sourced from the Internet Archive. If you look there you should find an online copy. If you wish to read online (not to download) I much prefer the Internet Archive book reader
