The Legend of My Uncle Arthur
Distant Trains – Introduction
Distant Trains – Introduction from Zev Robinson.
This is the first video as an introduction to my family history that includes my great-grandfather, an Orthodox Rabbi who was arrested for bootlegging wine during the Prohibition, my uncle who rode the rails during the Great Depression, then participated in the Dieppe landing, then the Italian campaign, my father, who was smuggled on a fishing boat in order to get to Israel in 1948, joined the Palmach, and was on a couple of kibbutzim, and much more.
