American Jews who support Israel have found themselves a very powerful and unexpected ally: Evangelical Christians. Zev Chafets, former New York Daily News columnist and onetime director of communications for Menachem Begin, explores this partnership in A Match Made in Heaven.

Over the course of a year, Chafets spent quality time with Jerry Falwell, visited Jewish cadets at West Point, attended the world's biggest Christian retail show, journeyed to the Holy Land with a band of repentant Christian pilgrims, and broke bread with George W. Bush and five hundred Jewish Republicans.

A Match Made in Heaven is the often hilarious story of Chafets's quest to get to the root of a very serious question: Why do Evangelicals support Israel so strongly? Equal parts history, comedy, travelogue, and political tract, it is a smart and adventurous religious and political odyssey.

Zev Chafets was born and raised in Pontiac, Michigan. After graduating from the University of Michigan, he moved to Jerusalem, where he spent 33 years in politics, government, and journalism, including a stint as director of communications for Prime Minister Menachem Begin. Chafets is a former columnist for the New York Daily News, as well as a founding editor of Jerusalem Report magazine and the author of nine books of fiction, media criticism and social and political commentary.
