Product Description
Every so often, a book comes along that amazes its readers with insights of the not-too-long ago past. The autobiography of Rabbi Hecht is a page-turner, grabbing the reader by the lapels and drawing him into national and international boardrooms and government conference rooms. Rabbi Hecht’s magnetism and youthful exuberance make us passengers on a joyful, albeit serious, continuing life journey.

Some people are larger than life. Some people seem to exert great influence on history, effecting appreciable changes. One such person is Rabbi Abraham B. Hecht, president of the Rabbinical Alliance of America – Igud HaRabonim. An unusually engaging personality, Rabbi Hecht served as the rabbi of the American Syrian community for more than 50 years, having being appointed as the rabbi of the Syrian congregation Bnai Magen David of Brooklyn, in 1945.
