Dr. Frank Romano

(JERUSALEM) - Storm Over Morocco is a true story about the author; who was wrongly accused of being a Zionist spy in 1978 and tried for sabotage, a capital crime, by an extremist Islamic group in Morocco.

While traveling across Africa searching for a universal religion, he was invited to study Islam in a mosque in Casablanca, Morocco; it turned out to be controlled by a militant Moslem group which promptly imprisoned him.

This harrowing ordeal was followed by excruciating suspense built up during attempts to escape the 10-foot high compound.

After his escape, Romano uses his personal experiences as a means of organizing interfaith events with varied religions that included fundamentalist Muslims, Jews, and Christians in Israel and Palestine. Never losing sight of his spiritual path, he continues to nurture his dream of helping to find a peaceful solution to religious conflicts.

He’s a tenured professor at the University of Paris and a member of the California and Marseille Bars. He’s also an adjunct professor at Golden Gate University.

The 4^th Edition of the book was published in 2010 and it includes two new chapters, including one that discusses a recent intense meeting with Militant Palestinians in a West Bank refugee camp. Many people have expressed interest about his present interfaith activities during author events and media interviews, which inspired the 4^th Edition.

He has just returned from Israel and the West Bank where he organized and participated in interfaith Peace Marches and author events.
