ABOUT THE BOOK
From the book, Masada, by Neil Waldman. With his carefully researched text and elegant illustrations, Waldman evokes the dramatic history of Masada - the mad king who built it, the fierce Zealots who defended it, the remorseless Romans determined to destroy it, and the modern-day archaeologists searching for its treasures. (Copyright, 1998 by Neil Waldman.)

The rabbi is clutching the precious Torah as if he is afraid to let it go. His eyes are closed and he has a sad expression on his face. He is all alone in this holy place with only his thoughts and prayers. The rabbi wants to do something special with his most treasured possession. He must protect his people and his faith.
Adam Grossman, Josh Hirsch, Margi Yehuda, Grade 5, Perelman Jewish Day School, Forman Center, Melrose Park
