Summary: Hard to put down
Comment: I started reading this book one shabbos and had trouble putting it down to daven. After shabbos I didn't put it down until I finished on Sunday. For any serious Jew this book will be absolutely inspirational, for others it is very interesting. You read about Meyer Birnbaum's life in such a way that you can picture yourself there. Learn what it was like to grow up as an Orthodox Jew in a poor family early in the Century. He was there for the near beginnings of the Agudath movement in the U.S. He was an officer in the U.S. Army (a combat soldier no less) who managed to remain observant under some very difficult experiences, not all due to combat- sometimes fellow soldiers weren't all that understanding, picture wearing tifillin to daven in the morning during basic training (anyone who was in the military should be in cold sweats at that picture). He helped with concentration camp survivors and helped get many to Israel and he moved to Israel in time to see the birth of a nation. This is an inspirational story, with doses of intrigue and suspense. One of the best books I ever read.

Summary: The Life of A True Mench
Comment: A detailed account that keeps the reader turning page after page in excitement. This autobiography by a devoted orhtodox Jew who maintains his traditions and integrity throughout the hardships of life, growing up poverty-stricken in America, and serving in the Untied States army during World War II, will surely inspire and enthrall readers from all backgrounds.
