by Robert J. Avrech, Seraphic Press, November 2004.

Set in the years immediately following the Civil War, The Hebrew Kid and the Apache Maiden tells the fascinating story of a Jewish family migrating westward in search of a home to call their own and a life free from oppression.

In this new novel, author Robert J. Avrech vividly renders the essence of long-standing customs and teachings of two fascinating cultures - Jewish and Apache.

The Hebrew Kid and the Apache Maiden is utterly authentic, brimming with reverence, suspense, humor, truly memorable characters, and perhaps the unlikeliest minyan ever to witness a Bar Mitzvah! This unforgettable debut novel takes a fascinating look at the history of America and reminds readers that the many faiths that our people observe are exactly what make our nation whole.
