Five StarsBy Keith GilbertTimely then; and o'h so timely today.9 of 11 people found the following review helpful. Rabbi Kahane's First Book; and one of the most exciting!!!By BriBri....for anyone who knows Rabbi Kahane's ZT'L writing; then you will love this book. For those being introduced to the Rabbi; will be riveted. It cronichle's the JDL's climb from a small group in brooklyn to international headlines; and I should know; I was there with the Rabbi. This is an honest account of the early days of the JDL; straight through the eighty's etc. If you appreciate what the JDL has done for the Jewish People; then you will love this book; it's true in every was; like I said; I was there.........Shalom
