Schroeter takes us from the "Unknown Jewish Nation" within the Soviet Union to the Six-Day War of June 1967, which marked the beginning of the Jewish renaissance in the Soviet Union, through to the Leningrad hijacking trials in June 1970. With the author we visit the major cities of the Soviet Union: • Kiev, and the 1968 trial of Boris Kochubiyevsky, the first hero , of the Jewish move- ment; • Leningrad, and the stories of Hillel Butman, David Chernoglaz, Zev Mogilever, and many others who began to seek theirs Jewish heritage prior to the Six-Day War, and spent years in Siberian labor camps because of their quest; • Riga, where Leon Uris' "Exodus" became Our Tanakh," where the young Jews cleared and created a memorial at Rumbuli (where 25,000 Jews were executed in early 1941 by Germans and Latvians), where the appearance of an Israeli singer precipitated a near riot, and where the Leningrad hijacking plans were first formulated. • Moscow, where we meet Yahov Kazahov who was the first of many Soviet Jews to renounce their Soviet citizenship The RAIN DOCTOR .

The mass last Sunday marked the first time a pope has used Hebrew to express Easter wishes. The pontiffs appeal, attended by about 350,000 people, called on the world to reject war and forrnri ern and to demand permis- sion to emigrate to Israel. We learn of difficulties in producing Samizdat (un- derground newspaper), and we read the petitions signed by many, protest- ing Soviet violations of their own laws in their actions against their Jewish citizens. We learn why the highest percentage of Jews allowed to leave have been the proud nationalistic Jews of Geor- gia. In Vilna, the Jerusalem of the north, we attend the trial of Simon Grilius, Oleg Frolov, and the Vudha brothers. In every one of the 15 re- publics of the USSR Schroe- ter introduces the reader to the leaders of the Jewish movement. We read their protests, we attend their trials, we rejoice when they receive their exit visa and we suffer when they receive . their refusals. We also have the opper- tunity to meet the early leaders of the American Soviet Jewry movement Joel Sprayregen, a Chicago attorney, Lou Rosenblum, of Cleve- land, and of course De- troit's own Rae Sharfman. Leon Schroeter has pro- duced a most significant document in the dramatic struggle of the Soviet Jew in his attempt to escape from bondage. The 400-plus pages offer an insight into man's never ending quest for freedom. This book is must reading for anyone in- terested in recent Jewish history. NO HIDDEN CHARGES! COV ° C6/0 .
