Why Did the Leave? Where Did They Go?

A Personal Tour of Jewish Sites and the Discovery of Hidden Uncomfortable Truths

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

It was never the author's intention to link his personal experiences and the observations resulting from a lifetime of travel to the two thousand year history of migration, expulsion and exile suffered by the Jewish diaspora. It was just unavoidable. This book describes each of the travel related events that culminated in this unanticipated outcome.

Since then, he and his wife, Ronnie, have traveled extensively, visiting each of the continents and numerous countries during the past fifty years.
