Summary

"In the heady days of the summer of 1970, an untrained police recruit, recently returned to his native Brooklyn from a tour in the air force, was secretly assigned by the NYPD to infiltrate an up and coming urban terrorist organiztion. It was led by a charismatic rogue rabbi whose impact would be felt around the world. Richard Rosenthal advanced through the ranks of the Jewish Defense League from its early days of street intimidation through its produciton of incendiary weapons, its international airline hijacking attempt and ultimately its bombings until he was appointed firearms instructor, oversaw their weapons arsenal and acted as body guard to the infamous Rabbi Meir Kahane."--Back cover.
