"The High Holy Days - Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur - are for many Jews the highlight of the Jewish year, as well as the occasion for perhaps their only visit to their congregation for worship.". "The liturgy for the Days of Awe is also the longest and most complex of the year. Unfortunately, a large number of worshippers have only an incomplete understanding of the holidays' significance. Entering the High Holy Days provides needed historical background and also interprets the ideas, practices, and liturgy that lend Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur contemporary relevance to today's Jews."--BOOK JACKET.
