Akiva - The Story of Rabbi Akiva and His Times [Hardcover]
Against the backdrop of Eretz Yisrael after the destruction of the Holy Temple, this vivid account portrays the life of Rabbi Akiva as he rose from humble shepherd to great Sage and leader of his generation. The Talmud and Midrash were prime sources for this colorful portrayal, one of the best loved of the many carefully researched, inspiring historical novels that Rabbi Lehmann wrote about Jewish heroes of times past.
