Aubrey Newman has written extensively in the field of Anglo-Jewish history and particularly in the history of Provincial Jewry since the middle of the eighteenth century.
He has co-edited (together with Barbara Butler), A Sacred Memory. Lectures in Honour of Elchanan and Miriam Elkes (Leicester, 2003), and published The Holocaust. We Must Never Forget, Nor Allow It To Happen Again (London, 2002).
He has set up proposals for the Kindertransport and Bergen-Belsen projects, and is currently also engaged in a South African Jewish migration project – an analysis of the Eastern European Jews who went to South Africa between 1890 and 1914, and in research on Provincial Jewry Britain between 1740 to 1914.
