Hardcover

, 1st Edition
1940 novel about the Jewish experience in America -- in 2015, novelist Richard Price said "My most beloved character was Adam Levy in “The Fire Eater,” by Henry J. Berkowitz. Adam was a Jewish street kid growing up among the anti-Semitic mugs of working-class Philadelphia circa 1910. Over the course of the book he evolves from a scrapper to a high school football star to a war hero in France. Eerily, just like me."
