Who is Barry Goldstein, a.k.a. Barish Goldshteyn? (Or maybe this should be the other way around. I don't know).
Of late I've enjoyed some of his Yiddish translations of English language books. These include titles one might not expect to find in Yiddish, such as the Antarctic voyages of Shackleton (but interestingly -- not that of Expedition Leader Robert Falcon Scott whose own diaries present Shackleton as something of the bad boy.)
Mr. Goldstein's offerings include not only a Yiddish-English dictionary (actually one I find useful), as well as The Hobbit and related books by J.R.R.Tolkien, and many more.
Here is his web page:
Or search in Amazon.com with the words Barry Goldstein Yiddish and you'll find many his books -- some of which are bilingual.
