I had previously all-too-easily accepted the cliché's portrayal that he was too timid and meek, either afraid or unwilling to advance Jewish interests at the most important time in our people's history. Resnick has proven these opinions wrong and Bloom emerges as a far more complex character, more deeply as a caring proud Jew.\" \u003cb\u003e- Michael Berenbaum, PhD, renowned historian, project director overseeing the creation of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\"The response of American Jewry to the plight of their European brothers and sisters remains a sensitive and somewhat murky subject.

It is the job of activists and opposition leaders to call for justice and action. It is the job of leaders in power to accomplish what is possible. Purity is a luxury of the powerless while reality is the world of those with power. In this study of the life of Sol Bloom... Resnick thoroughly and sensitively evaluates the powerful politician based on what was realistically possible, arriving at surprising conclusions.\" \u003cb\u003e- Rabbi Gil Student, editor of \u003ca href=\"\/\/TorahMusings.com\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:blue\"\u003eTorahMusings.com\u003c\/a\u003e, director of the Halacha Commission of the Rabbinical Alliance of America\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cdl\u003e\"In America First, Elliot Resnick applies the same passion he exhibits on his engaging podcast to tackling the controversial legacy of one of the 20th century's most politically powerful American Jews.
