Today is PALM SUNDAY for the Christian Faithful – usually a day set aside for pageantry and Pomp, recognizing the story of Jesus’s triumphant entry into the Holy City at the beginning of Passover, setting off a week of dramatic events that lead to his trial, crucifixion and death.

The book telegraphs the journey......
