Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this follow-up to the popular Adventures of Rabbi Harvey (with over 15,000 copies in print), the Rabbi returns to the streets of Elk Spring, Colorado. Part wild west sheriff, part old world rabbi, Harvey protects his town and delivers justice, wielding only the weapons of wisdom, wit, and a bit of trickery. These adventures combine Jewish and American folklore by creatively retelling comic Jewish folktales and setting them loose on the western frontier of the 1870s. As his fame grows throughout the Rocky Mountains, Rabbi Harvey faces a slew of new challenges, including the return of ?Big Milt? and Wolfie Wasserman (the most feared father-and-son outlaw team east of Nevada), and another bold crime by the sweet-faced Bad Bubbe. And, as ever, the Rabbi is the quickest draw in the West?when it comes to pulling out bits of Talmudic insight to fit any occasion, that is. Like any great collection of Jewish folktales, these stories contain layers of humor and timeless wisdom that will entertain both adults and young readers.
