In the US Jewish prayer books usually have English translations, but the needs of the Jewish people have been different in different times and places. In Europe and in the immigrant generation here in America Yiddish filled the role that English plays now. This is an area of Yidish publishing that hasn't gotten much attention. Below is a selection from stock, not a work of scholarship, but perhaps a suggestion of one. The images provided show the covers, title-pages and an image from the internal contents.
