This book first delves into the author's ancestry, thereby
providing a partial slice of Russian Jewish history. It then offers
an individual perspective on what it meant to grow up in the Soviet
Union in the aftermath of WWII. It also gives a personal account of
the rise and development of Jewish national awareness. It next
describes a struggle for the immigration to Israel in the late
1960s and the early 1970s through job loss, persecution, arrests,
imprisonment, and trial. It further relates the author's life in
Israel, including his work at the Voice of Israel, study at the
Hebrew University of Jerusalem, and service in the Israel Defense
Forces. Finally, it explores the author's academic career in the
United States, from the graduate school at the University of
Illinois to professorship at Cornell University.
