FOR
Ages have passed since the Beni Yisrael, that fierce confederation of tribes that comprised the original children of Israel, scratched a harsh, nomadic existence from the deserts of the Sinai.
FOUR
Century upon century spent wandering, "from place to place, from city to city, from country to country," hated and dispossessed.
THOUSAND
But they endured, forging a legacy rich in cultural and intellectual achievement from an ancient religious heritage.
YEARS
This is a special people, and theirs is a special story, an epic of magnificent richness, color, and grandeur. It is a story that pleads for a master storyteller to render it in all its complexity and wonder. A storyteller like Howard Fast.
