This is the fourth book in the series, titled Jewish Traces in Unexpected Places.

It includes 26 videos of Hava Nagila being performed from Texas to Thailand, from India to Iran, and from Buenos Aires to British Columbia. Also highlighted are 20 international versions of Hevenu Shalom Aleichem, Adon Olam, and Abanibi.
