Baruch's Odyssey: An Ethiopian Jew's Struggle to Save His People (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781791845056)

Baruch Tegegne was born in 1944 in Wozaba, Ethiopia, a remote Jewish hillside village. At age eleven, he was sent to study in Israel. At nineteen he returned to Ethiopia and worked as an agro-mechanic, and later bought his own farm, where he and his family prospered...until the Revolution in 1974, when life became unbearable for them. Baruch was determined to get his people out of Ehiopia and into the Land of Israel, which they cherished from afar for two thousand years. His harrowing escape to Israel took Baruch three years, traveling by land, sea and air to get to the Promised Land. Baruch's struggles to save his people ran into many obstacles, not the least of which was racial prejudice. Here is the story of a man and a people who have lived their ideals.
