"Feiler persuasively and entertainingly chronicles how Moses as action hero, Moses as role model has affected virtually every level of American society....Fascinating and thought-provoking."

"With a journalist eye and an adventurers spirit, Bruce Feiler brings his prodigious gifts of biblical analysis to a reconsideration of Moses as the essential prophet of the American Experience. This is an accessible and engaging book of indispensible insight."
