Synopsis
Daniel bar Jamin, 18, is determined to help his countrymen drive the Romans out of Israel. He feels it is his patriotic duty to do this, but he is also seeking revenge for the death of his parents. Thinking only of his goal, Daniel ignores his sister's worsening mental illness and the tenderness offered by his friends. Will a Rabbi named Jesus be able to help Daniel learn a different lesson--one that does not include hatred and violence? Winner of the 1962 Newbery Medal.

Publisher's Notes
First Line: "A boy stood on the path of the mountain overlooking the sea. He was a tall boy, with little trace of youth in his learn, hard body. At eighteen Daniel bar Jamin was unmistakenly a Galilien, with the bold features of his countrymen, the sun-browned skin, and the brilliant dark eyes that could light with fierce patriotism and blacken with swift anger."
