Summary: I Didn't Want to Stop
Review: Hollace Weiner's writing kept me enthralled. This book is the rare combination of careful and accurate research while the presentation is that of an enticing historical novel. It's loaded with all the goods - mystery, politics, romance and more, but all the accounts are true. I couldn't put this book down as every chapter had a fresh and intriguing draw. The facts themselves are fascinating. Written in Ms. Weiner's engaging style, this book is a big winner.

Summary: Review from Max Weiner: retired Professor of Law
Review: Ms. Weiner's book about the impact of Rabbi's on Texas Culture and Goverment is an invaluable tool for the historian and genealogist. It also happens to be a wonderful read! I finished it in one setting and was immediately able to place some of my own historical research into Ms. Weiner's Texas-sized swath of Jewish influence. I highly recommend the book.
