Description:
Rabbi Jonathan Porath recounts the story of his lifetime of experiences with Soviet and post-Soviet Jews spanning over fifty years. This first-person account is packed with anecdotes from one of the great sagas of modern Jewish history, the near loss and ultimate return of Soviet Jewry to the Jewish people after more than seventy years of Communist rule.

A moving message of Jewish connection and an important perspective on a chapter in Jewish history worthy of being told.
Natan Sharansky
former Prisoner of Zion

Filled with unforgettable vignettes, the volume serves both as a primary historical source on the Soviet Jewry movement and as a monument to a proud Brandeis alumnus who helped transform the Jewish world.
Jonathan D. Sarna
University Professor and Joseph H. & Belle R. Braun Professor of American Jewish History, Brandeis University
