To all the wonderful teachers and other volunteers across the country who have helped make the All America Reads project a reality.
This book is also dedicated to the memory of Yossi Chaim Paley (April 14, 1988–March 10, 2001)
The bravest young man I ever met.
“A wrongly accused man is always vilified by the ignorant masses. Such a man should fire at will, he is bound to hit something.”
“Speed, surprise and violence of action.”
