Book Synopsis

The intriguing personal memoirs of Joseph Alster, from his idyllic youth in Germany, to his escape to Holland following Kristallnacht; from his daring escapades with Rabbi Meir Kahane and the Jewish Defense League in America, to the search for Mengele; and Alster's move to Israel, where he continues his activism against injustice.
Since the quiet life has never been enough for Alster, he unfolds his highly emotional and compelling story in a deeply passionate and philosophical stream of consciousness.
