How to Pray as a Jew is a comprehensive guide to the
orthodox siddur. For those who attend
orthodox services, or prayer at home, this book does not have all that much to
offer; it does delve a bit into the history of the siddur's composition, but
not to any great extent.
For the rank beginner, the major drawback of this book is
that the author does not explain the siddur in order, but by level of
importance. So, for those not familiar
with siddur, having one handy while reading this book is key.
