A Hero or a Delinquent---You Decide?

Reviewed in the United States on September 25, 2020

The writer tells of his life as Israel is born. He is a hero to his family, friends, and country, and to those he opposed a terrorist. He was also a teen tempting life, love, and also loss. Through all of this, he grew into an adult with talents, stories, and rich history. He tells his stories passionately, and yet he tells them from hindsight as he reviews his actions and deeds with the experience of age. This is a great read for those seeking inspiration and justification of actions they are taking or considering to grow, learn, and create their future for themselves and their country.
