Full Description
In If We Could Hear Them Now, Jewish heroines come to life from
different eras of Jewish history. The author conducts interviews with
different greats of the past, allowing each woman to tell her story
from a personal point of view. History is brought down from the
shelves of libraries and study halls and put in the readers’ hands.
Written in a contemporary and riveting fashion, this book illustrates
what sets a hero apart and what lessons we can learn and incorporate
from these remarkable lives.
