Alan Dershowitz has long been one of Israel's most ardent defenders. Now, in his new book, he sums up what Israel means to him-and offers a distinguished group of politicians, journalists, artists, and religious leaders the opportunity to share their feelings about Israel as well. From Larry King, William Bennett, Ed Koch, Rabbi Harold Kushner, and David Mamet to Barney Frank, Pat Robertson, Erica Jong, and Jonathan Kellerman, the diverse group of all-star contributors pays tribute to the Jewish state, highlighting their personal connections to Israel's history, land, people, politics, and faith. For anyone who cares passionately about Israel, this beautifully designed volume will make a much treasured gift.
