"A poorly written account of a great event--the leader of the KKK in Nebraska gives up a life of hatred through the confrontational kindness of a Jewish cantor and his family."
"The true story behind the unlikely friendship between Cantor Michael Weisser and Klansman Larry Trapp. Trapp, physically dying due to poorly managed diabetes personally attacks Weisser's family simply due to his hatred of Jews. With an unbreakable belief in the goodness of all people, Cantor Weisser not only forgives Trapp, but invites him into his family. The conclusion includes Trapp convervting to Judaism before his death."
