Recollections
"Eyewitness to history" is a
proper description of a most im-
pressive autobiography. It is
being applied to A Rabbi's Rov-
ings (Ktav) in which Rabbi Israel
Mowshowitz recalls his half-
century of experiences as an emis-
sary for the Jewish people to
many quarters of, the world and
his spokesmanship for Jewry.
He had many assignments. His
travels were worldwide and in the
course of them he met and confer-
red with the world's leading
Jewish personalities and many
non-Jews as well. '
He received many honors, most
noteworthy the Medallion of the
City of New York, awarded to him
by Mayor Robert F. Warner.
In his many roles, as president
of the New York Board, as
Synagogue Council of America's
delegate to the Non-
Governmental Organizations of
the United Nations and as a par-
ticipant, in many American
Jewish tasks, he was an emissary
to many world Jewish com-
munities.
Therefore, he was close to the
Israel scene and befriended such
leaders as David Ben-Gurion and
the various Israeli ambassadors.
The non-Jews he met and con-
ferred with included the Shah of
Iran, King Hussein of Morocco,
President Kwame Nkrumah of
Ghana and President Sadat of
Egypt, the martyred leader who
made peace with Israel.
In one respect, there is a brief
summary of Rabbi Mowshowitz's
impressive and fact-laden auto-

biography in a letter to him by
Elie Wiesel which serves as a
preface to the volume. In part,
Wiesel stated:
"What your friends like about
ydu is your tolerance and under-
standing: you are open to ideas
and experiences. Differing opin-
ions do not annoy you. In fact,
come to think of it, I have never
seen you angry. Nor have I found
anger in your book.' Except .
Except when describing here and
there certain Jews who hide their
Jewishness or are ashamed of it.
And when visiting Germany,
"Elsewhere, even in Arab coun-
tries, you wish to listen, to learn,
to acquire knowledge. It is the
Jew in you, the Rabbi in you that
aims to build bridges between our
people and others, our faith and
others, our tradition and others.
To read you is to follow you on
your journey to Iran's festivities
and to Morocco's conferences, to
Poland's cemeteries and to
Prague's Museum, to Egypt and to
South Africa, and, naturally, to
Israel, to Jerusalem the dream of
our dreams, the fire that keeps
our sparks alive,"
Rabbi Mowshowitz's autobiog.
raphy is impressive, informative
and will surely be treated as an
important supplement to the re'
corded Jewish history of this on-
